Tiamo

Often credited as the go-to destination for sundowners, Tiamo is known for its simple yet elegant details. The menu here delves into Italian and Mediterranean cuisine, wherein appetising pastas and an experiential bar find a space too. Signature dishes here include lamb agnolitti, which is made using flattened pasta dough filled with meat or vegetables; steamed prawn with olive tapenade, an olive- and caper-flavoured tapenade infused with herbs and spices; smoked salmon parfait on cucumber shell; and roasted pumpkin with beetroot avocado and walnut.

The Indian Durbar

The Indian Durbar at Conrad Bengaluru repackages age-old recipes and unravels them in an intense infusion of flavour and aroma. The intricate interiors with gold-leafed jali work pays homage to royalty, traditions, and cultures. The food sings similar regal notes with flavours reminiscent of the Mughal period. Shedding light on the royal gharanas of the Indian Dynasty, the menus here are curated in consultation with culinary historians and chefs. Some of the recommended specials include Durbar-e-dal, which is lentils prepared with tomato, butter, and cream; galouti kebab—a griddle-cooked lamb served on ulta tawa ka paratha (inverted griddle flatbread); and durbar-e-lazeez maas, or braised lamb ribs and boneless with Awadhi spices.

Mikusu

Mikusu offers an amalgamation of various authentic and traditional flavours of the East. Think Chinese, Thai and Japanese cuisines served under the guidance and tutorship of Japanese Master Chefs. Some of the notable dishes here include Edamame Dumpling, which is made with a combination of edamame, miso, lemon juice, garlic and ginger; Miso glazed Cod, which is a Japanese melt-in-your-mouth, buttery-soft, fish delicacy; and MIKUSU crispy prawns and Peking duck — a recipe that dates its inception to the Imperial era of Beijing.
