SLV and the tales of chutney..


SLV is a hot favorite for all those who have stayed in south Bangalore. Most of us at sometime or other have been to this small tucked away and quite unassuming self service restaurant. SLV embodies the essence of the original bengaluru, much before the name change it self.

This small place has quite some branches across south Bangalore, mainly BSK II stg near the BDA park and near JP nagar just to name a few. The food is typical south Indian snacks. But the specialty of this place is the chutney. Its mouth watering and they rightfully so, have a separate counter for second innings chutney batting. Also the specialty of the this place is that you don't get sambhar with your idli, vada or dosa but only loads of tasty chutney.

For the size of this place and the crowd, its surprisingly very clean, actually more clean then some of the other restaurants which are much bigger with place to sit. This place is perfect for the early morning coffee after the walk and may be a quick breakfast and some conversation. Some how at this joint, once you walk in, it takes you back to the olden days where things were much more relaxed and conversations, coffee and art ruled us, unlike IT, deadline and traffic.

All this and tasty chutney and clean ambiance. This is what the humble SLV offers you. Come here with out expectation for a quite nice breakfast and you shall get a little more in bargain. This is the perfect place where you can see, how happiness lies in simple things and in this case - some hot idli and tasty chutney.
