Eshwar Rao entered the kitchen of a generations-old military hotel when he was barely into his teens. It was here that he learnt age-old Karnataka-Maratha recipes from his mentor, Rukmini Bai over decades of diligent labor, that he now serves up in his rustic eatery, S G Rao’s Military Hotel in Cottonpet, Bengaluru. I met this entrepreneur, now in his forties, and caught the making of a unique military style pulav, in addition to a tasting of some of the other must-haves here. The pulav here is cooked only with the gravy of the meat, the meat that is then layered under the rice just before serving. And interestingly, the chicken pulav too is cooked in any mutton gravy that may be available! Hope you enjoy this tasty episode. Take care; stay safe and strong. Happy eating!

Dear Mr Kripal.. I greatly appreciate the efforts that you put into all your content. It’s always brimming with quality and zest. I also enjoy the colourful illustrations that breathe new life into seemingly regular dishes.. this show truly canvases the diversity that defines our culinary landscape.. Regards and best wishes..

[@YogeshaKS]

HI Sir, thanks for the aesthetically pleasing food review videos. I stay abroad for a few years now, and make my list of eateries to visit when in Bangalore; based out of your videos. It would be nice if you could collect the dishes that got 10/10 rating among your videos (for ex: shetty lunch home ghee roast etc.) It would really help out.

[@prathimat4929]

[@vasanthkumarjayaraman6753]

With sweat dripping from the bottom of your hat, your presence inside the steaming kitchen is palpable. Very tasty looking dishes.

[@manmohanmalhotra5339]

It’s a ritual , for us every Sunday , it used to be closed on Monday and Saturday , but now opened on Saturday , earlier everything would get over by 9 am ,

[@Sanjayphoto]

Though all the Military Hotels in Banglore are different with there signature biryanis and other dishes by different owners but they have one common connection that is Maratha origin. It is a great information to me. Kripal ji always gives very minutely the flavor and taste of the dishes. He describe these details in such a manner that one is tempted to reach the venue immediately. His description of preparation of dishes in kitchen is equally tempting. Thank Kripal ji and team.😊🙏🌹

[@ashwinoashwin]

Whatever happened to the chickpet guy who started it all? His place is in one of these lanes. I used to visit him a decade back when he was just a single outlet. Later he rebranded himself as sg gundu pulav and started many outlets/franchise . That’s when the quality started to go down significantly

[@MrHarry1411]

In old Bangalore, Military hotels apart from the Maratha Hotels there were also Naidu Military Hotels. While the Maratha Military hotels were concentrated in the old City or Pete ( Pethas - anglicized ) areas, the Naidu Military hotels were 'also' in some of the smaller streets in the Cantonement area apart from the old city area. Gowdru Mudde hotels have sprung up in the past 40 to 50 years. While all Vokkaligas have a sobriquet Gowdas, all Gowda Surnames need not confine to Vokkaligas only. There are Gowda Surnames among the Eediga or Toddy Tapper community also among Shepherd or Kuruba community. Former CM CM Siddaramiah belongs to Kuruba community.

[@surajd3797]

Never heard gowda surname in our Toddy Tappers community.. Most common is Guttedar

[@babu-mk8tq]

you see only 1% gowda surnane in other castes, while 99% gowda are vokkaligas only....

Just went today for lunch 1. Located in Shitty Cottonpet, finding a parking place is a tough job 2. I am 50 and the chicken was probably as old as me, hard and chewy 3. Service sucks and pathetic 4. If you have eaten in Shivaji Military Hotel, then this place is no comparison, all this 110 year old and other things are just hype and bullshit 5. Shivaji Military hotel is slightly more expensive but it is located in cleaner part of Bangalore near BSK temple, but it is really worth going and eating there. 6. Any Gowda can cook the pulav served in SG Rao hotel, nothing to rave about
