Food looks amazing, the hospitality of the owner is heartwarming & a person who takes pride in their establishment & is hands on, knowledgeable makes it all the more charming. Awesome Episode !

[@akshaymodi157]

Another amazing and comprehensive episode guys! When it comes to delicious food, this hotel is a gem! Giving you my version on how the military hotel concept came about - Military Hotel is a short code name for Hindu Military hotels which were Hindus owned non veg hotels. They used the term military because it was popular among military service men. They used to ensure there is no beef and they served only Jhatka meat (the meat which is obtained by a painless one single blow to the animal during slaughter). It is because in those days Hindus demanded these conditions be met in order to eat non veg food outside home.

2:59 - Reality Check (not blasphemous): This amalgamation of Kshatriya Maratha - South Karnataka food is something you'll not find in MH. It's unique in its own way and primarily restricted to the urban B'luru/Mysuru regions alone (my understanding). 3:14: Fact Check (blasphemy) - It is not Hyd Dum Biriyani!!!

[@rkr8959]

Facts from a bangaloren - Donne biriyani / pulao and all the naati chicken and mutton dishes are the flavours of gowda community who are native Bangalore and Mysore mandya people. They were the zamindars/landowners during the British raj they were prominently non-vegetarians...the maratha cuisine was introduced by a maratha military person who came back to Bangalore and started serving maratha flavours blend in with gowda delicacies so it became military hotel...on a whole it's Desi and rooted country side recipies of gowdas with a slight maratha masala(because of the person) and served under a military name.....shivaji military hotel was one of the oldest places where all it began and since it became so famous the military name continued every where just like pulao became biryani.....at this point and time there are 1000s of hotels in Bangalore who serve naati gowda maratha blend in style of food in the name of military hotel .....it became so much popular because of the usage of naati(country meat not the farm one), the home cooking style which in turn makes it healthy and homely also consisting of punchy flavors and the reasonable price at which they serve

[@TheBigForkers]

Thanks for sharing this

[@lillychillipilli]

RKR- yes bro. Technically Gowda community is not just Mysore Mandya Bangalore Channapatna Ramnagara - They are predominantly Gangatkar subcaste of Gowda community. Hassan, Kolar and Chikkamagaluru are also predominately Gowdas of different subcastes like Gangatkar Das Namdaris aswell. An amazing explanation. Much appreciated👌🏽
