Bangalore Photos

Bangalore is a bustling city in India. For visitors, it's possible to thrive on a vegan fare where there are thousands of vegetarian restaurants.

I had to see this as I am from Bangalore. Bangalore has changed so much over the years. It is such a stark contrast of modern and traditional.
Is that 3rd photo Sajjan Rao circle temple?

red chillies,

The temple in the 3rd photo is near commercial street.

smn,
Even I felt that the weather is so weird in Bangalore. I guess because of global warming.

jaya,
I too love cafe coffee day, and the black coffee and vegan shake we get there is wonderful!

Sia,
The only thing I hate about Bangalore is the horrible traffic!

It is so pleasing and when one can find the food that they enjoy when travelling.

really nice pictures! I also read your last entry about being vegan in India with great interest.
I love Indian food and here whenever I am in an Indian restaurant here in Germany I have the feeling that Indians are the most "vegan-friendly" people. I never get weird looks when I ask them about animal ingredients as in other restaurants. In other restaurants I always get the weird looks. I always thought it was because a vegetarian diet was something completely normal in India. I was surprised to find out that you had a hard time to find vegan products and to convince your family that you are not starving.
Anyway, I think it's great that so many people in India are vegetarians.

Hasn't Bangalore changed quite a bit since you last saw it?
I find it a bit of a nightmare!
While I am vegetarian (eggs occasionally) it is nice to see vegan versions of lots of Indian food.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
