Must Visit Coffee Cafes in Bangalore.

 
1. Urban Solace - Ulsoor lake
Its tagline says "Cafe for the soul" and Urban Solace totally justifies that. Great Coffee, Great Food, Super great Ambience and Poetry. What else one can ask for. Its the only place in bangalore(as far as I know) that offer poets to render their heart out. With the "Tuesdays with the Bard" concept the place has become a must must for us. Situated right beside the ulsoor lake adds to beauty of the place. Sandwiches and Cheese balls will surely make you lick your fingers. Thanks a lot Perry.


2. Claytopia - Indirangar 6th Main
Once you are at Claytopia, you can barely resist yourself from saying "Yes, A lot can happen over coffee".(no offence to CCD). Nicely put in indirangar we often call coming here as having "Coffee with Colors and Clay".  You can select your clay structures and can paint while holding to your delicious coffee mug. Infact some of my friends who happened to visit there some time back also told me that You can actually make clay structures there by yourself. Very handy on your budget this place serves awesome Varieties of Coffee.



3. Java  - Diamond district, Domlur
Just Coffee and Cookies(Complimentary). Java serves the Best Coffee in town. This is where you fall in love with Coffee. Placed in Exquisite Diamond district residency the place lives up to the expectations, infact overshoots them. But the fact that makes java beats all other coffee shops is that its 24hr running. So at midnite, if your taste buds longs for sips of Coffee, Land here and be assured.


4. Matteo - Church Street
Brigade is where bangalore's heart beats and having a damn good coffee shop there is like icing on the cake. Matteo is the favourite hangout of bangalore youth. Its huge and have heavonly cushions to lay your bums on. Its always full of people, Vibrant and trendy. You can also bite into Pizzaz and Pastas served.Matteo in our college lingo meant "Just relax" and place seems to offer exactly that.




5. Barista - Bagmane Tech Park.
Finally the coffee shop to make to my list of must visit Coffee hangouts in bangalore is Barista, Bagmane tech park.(I wonder how the good old CCD missed out) May be because its so near to my Office. But it has a great milieu of corporates and their bustling lives. On a CLoudy windy day having a coffee there in the evening is surely a treat to feel. Plus Caramel Coffee fills you up with fun and frolic till the brim. An after Office gossip cant be more fun. Njoy.

Our Shadow of songs

"A little sweet, a liitle sour
a little close , not too far
all i need 
all i need
is to be free."
Whenever i listen this song 'Mera Jahan' , from a masterpiece of a film Taare Zameen Par, studded with a masterpiece of music from Shankar Ehsaan Loy, I feel special joy and happiness breathing inside me. A assurance rising in me, confidence rooting in me. I just can't resist singing its lyrics, another masterpiece from Prasoon Joshi, with the child in me once again coming to the front and enjoying. I hope everyone of us has some special songs which we relate to in a very divine way. Share.
