In the first of what will hopefully be a series of meals with friends and fellow food lovers, I catch up with my friend, Dr Anand Shenoy, over a delicious Saraswat meal, with some vegetarian dishes that took him back to his childhood memories. We also savour forgotten seafood dishes from an erstwhile restaurant, Unicorn that was hugely popular in its days. All this, made possible by restaurateur Pratiksha Nayak at her LightHouse restaurant, Bengaluru, with the vegetarian dishes contributed by her mother, Mrs. Parvathi Nayak. This was an interesting, leisurely afternoon, of great food no doubt, but also one that offered a peek into the GSB culture and one of Bengaluru’s now sadly lost culinary gems, Unicorn

Teppal is not for taste or something. Some fish, jackfruit seeds causes severe bloating in some people. To tone down teppal used

You can feel the love for food in Kripal Amanna sir's eyes and that's why we are watching Food Lovers TV everyday for more than 3 years. Warning - Food is addictive after watching Kripal Amanna sir 👍

Happy eating, Abhisek! 😋

Sir Dr shenoy is a person we have to look upto , his humility inspires Thank you sir

[@ghungroogangatesh3549]

Kripal, Bengaluru also gets a lot of farmed freshwater fish….the Karnataka govt promotes pisciculture , for example Yelahanka is known for farmed catfish and Catla …Tumkur is famous for farmed Tilapia and Basa , Mysore for Cauvery Trout , Channapatna for farmed shrimp etc….it’s not just seafood . Farmed and river fish is also popular

[@KripalAmannaVlogs]

True, am not a big fan of farmed fish though.

[@prajaygaonkar5991]

Lol.. there's a hell lot of difference between Sea food and farmed fishes😂 I think south Karnataka people hv never tasted our coastal proper fresh sea food.

[@logicalindian8229]

I respect your passion for farmed fish but never mention farmed fish to a person from Mangalore,/Udupi..... We can't tolerate it

[@kayR8]

Whenever I am bored and want to watch something on KZbin , I just search your vlogs ..I love how you describe the food. Lot to learn😊

The Greatest thing on Kripal Sir he loves yo revive the old culinary traditional dishes thus giving the entrepreneur a thrust and what more his facial express is reflected on the dish he taste every where.Truly Bringing Back the By Gone era in Traditional dishes .Thats why Kripal Sir vlogs appreciated round the continent. 🙏

[@harishshenoy8663]

I AM A G.S.B. TODAY I FEEL PROUD,HAPPY AND PLEASED. I WAS REALLY IMPRESSED THAT THE TRADITIONAL G.S.B. VEGETARIAN DISHES WERE SERVED. THANK YOU DEAR KRIPAL, HAPPY EATING ESPECIALLY TO G.S.B. KONKANI'S. ♥️👍😊

Preeteksha's mother is just like my mother, although she does not eat non-veg, but she used to cook non-veg for the rest of the family and it used to be perfect, salt, spice, etc, now she has become old, so she does not cook

This restaurant an interesting discovery , as most of the dishes barring crab chilli, chicken 65 & fish 93 are made by us. I was particularly impressed by tepla ambat which we regularly make, as texture and colour was awesome. Vaingan bajji ( gulla or big purple) is also very regularly made. Actually GSB food variety in vegetarian is far higher then non vegetarian! Thanks kripal for this vlog- must visit on our next visit to Bangalore.

[@rutik_-mu2in]

great food VIDEO with greAT INFO.

[@pallavidhakappa5498]

Wow felt nice watching all my gsb food being a vegetarian my favourite is phodis and yes the drumstick phodi which we call maskasangi phodi 😊nothing like that...and as Dr Shenoy mentioned we use thepal for vegetarian dishes too we call tea aambat 👍what a nostalgic moment it was to watch this vedio

[@rjhappykp]

Any GSB people in the house 😋😋

[@dr.gauravshetty1736]

I think the lady is very smart...when kripa asked,she said fish made in morning..when he said it will taste better later, she says it was made last night... Not good..

Still vividly remember the episode on Lighthouse during the lockdown years - there was certain angst in the owner's tone back then when restaurants were going thru what was unquestionably the oughest time for restaurant business, but great to see Lighthouse bounce back and thriving! Kripal - The Good Samaritan saving restaurants one at a time!

[@prathikshanayak8148]

Thank you so much sir! Yes ,it was a tough phase for a lot of restauranteurs and the good Samaritan changed it for us. I cant thank kripal enough for the support..

Another classic vlog from Kripal 🙂 Thanks for livening up our taste buds!

[@shambhusnair91]

Sir, Usually Goan dish means more of Catholic dishes in Goa but it's when we travel towards Mangalore, Kasergode, or Karwar, or anywhere in Kerala, only then do we get to see these GSB cuisines, not just in Bangalore, but in Goa too it's missing, when I went to Goa I couldn't find any. Sir, I would like to see these catholic and GSB videos of Goa and Coastal Karnataka too, like a comparison video or something of Coastal Karnataka, Kasargode, and how that's different from their Goan counterparts/brothers who didn't migrate during the Portuguese invasion in your channel.

[@Gary-wp1wt]

CATHOLICS ARE A MINORITY IN GOA.. DONT TALK NONSENSE.

Watching non veg cuisine .. despite being a vegetarian… speaks volumes abt your style & presentation .., !! Best wishes …😍😍

[@AjitJoshi686]

I used to think amchigelle was more like GSB phenomenon and not language. Because in Mumbai Marathi speaking GSBs also seem to say this. And I used to think Nayak to be Tulu speaking. (Desai of course will be Konkani) . So the restaurant seems to have heritage of both Tulu and Konkani speaking coastal Karnataka .

[@SD-ld5lz]

Actually Nayak and Desai, both surnames are there among other communities as well.
