Do you have a long flowing beard with hypnotic eyes and tend to look like Osama Bin Laden or Osho? Are you the jhola type of scruffy 'intellectual'? Head honcho of some software concern? The 'hippie' creative type of artist? Do not feel comfortable in most restaurants?
Welcome to Koshy's on St. Marks road!
This place defies description. The food is good if you are not a gourmet. The service is passable if you are not in a hurry. The decor....well, good if you are not vey fussy.
The ambience?............Superb!
I have a sneaky feeling that Prem Koshy has let this place remain as it is since God knows when, because this is the last bastion of a bygones Bangalore. Kudos to him.
I have sat here with a cup of coffee (yummy) for long hours and yet was never made to feel uncomfortable.
All this and good Kerala and continental food. Fish/Mutton curry - rice meals are absolute value for money. Steaks are above average.
For a Sunday brunch of appam and stew, head there.
Caramel custard - lipsmacking!
