Kubay

A Konkani restaurant in Kormangala which serves fresh seafood.

We had the following:

- Prawns Butter Pepper Garlic which were excellent. Large juicy prawns.

- Mussles Spicy Fry which was a bit overcooked or burnt.

- Surmai Fry - Just perfectly made

- Mangalorean Fish Curry - Good.

- Chicken Ghee Roast - Not bad but it felt more like a punjabi chicken kabab dish rather then what I tend to compare Chicken Ghee Roast to wiz the one served at Shetty Lunch Home in Kundapur where you order it an hour in advance and it comes spicy and dripping of ghee. The one at Kubay could have used a bit more methi, red chilli and ghee.

- Sannas - Rice Idlis which were nice.

While I was there I saw a lot of Bombay and Maharashtrian folks there which is not surprising cause you get great seafood in Kubay like Apurva, Mahesh, Bharat, Trishna etc in Bombay so this must be a place of nostalgia for a Bombayite which is exactly what I was feeling although I had only left Bombay a week ago.

Few cons.

- It doesn't have a bar. That would have really rocked :)
- It appears to be more of a afternoon place as most seafood was run out by 2PM.
- The service is decent but they could be friendlier. Somehow one got the feeling they were in some hurry to run out of the restaurant.

Conclusion: A must visit place if you are a seafood and konkani cuisine lover.
