Appam Fusion Festival
From 30 Jan to 28 Feb 2018
Venue: Simbly South, Mangalore

Experience a swirl of flavours at Simbly South’s Appam Fusion Festival.

Appam lovers: quick question, how do you usually enjoy your Appams? Probably with the traditional South Indian stew, maybe tangy chutneys or some piping hot sambar, right?

Well, here’s a game changer for y’all. Simbly South never ceases to impress when it comes to quirky, innovative and sheer awesomeness with food presentation and this time around; it’s their Appam Fusion Festival that will astound you with the number of ways you can enjoy your Appam.

Take, for instance, the Mahabaleshwar Appam with an irresistible strawberry filling, alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a generous sprinkling of sugar which is a delight to your senses. And, sure, you’ve had that Red velvet cake, but can you imagine a Red Velvet Appam? The cynics among you can give it a rest though(we admit, we were too), because surprisingly here’s a delectable combo brimming with cream cheese and chocolate wafers, that is a must-try, should you want to give in to your sweet tooth.

Few of our other recommendations include Crab Ghee roast Appam, because well, ghee roast! As well as the Peri Peri Paneer Appam and the Caramel Sausage Appam. As for the non-Appam lovers, you may be stunned by how beautifully well the combination works, even if you’ve never fancied the former because not only is it a welcome break from the pasta and pizzas; but focusing on more regional food makes it a lot more satiating.
The festival is ongoing at Simbly South and will probably wind up on the 28th of February. If you’re in the city of Mangalore, this is a great one to catch. In case you do miss it-don’t say we didn’t already tell you.

Valentine's Week Special 2018 - Diesel Cafe
2018-02-14 - 2018-02-18 | Diesel Café, Diesel Café, Balmatta, Mangalore, Mangalore, India
Valentine’s Week Special – 2018
From 14 to 18th Feb 2018
Venue: Diesel Cafe, Mangalore

Diesel Cafe presents a week full of Valentine’s specials
Whether you’re single or hooked, making plans for Valentine’s day can seem like an arduous task. After all, how do you meet your partner halfway by ensuring that you’ve made just enough effort without going over the top or overriding their plans? Well, we could help. We stumbled across Diesel Cafe’s Valentine’s week and by George, we sure were bowled over by their incredible Valentine’s week menu.
Imagine sharing a soup called ‘Shape of my heart’ with your special someone poised with a floating heart on top. Utterly cheesy, yet romantic, ain’t it? How inviting and innovative when a bruschetta named ‘Love Bites’ is up for grabs! And ‘Made for each other’ another beautiful dish comprising smoked bacon, grilled chicken, white wine concasse and corn mash, is the star showstopper, we think. Also, do save room for some Sweet Valentine; fresh and pickled strawberry with Chantilly ice cream. As an added bonus, they offer an excellent drinks selection too.
Getting lovey-dovey in a sophisticated way has never been this easy. And the delicate, thoughtful dishes on their menu speak a love language of their own. Corny got us too, but head to Diesel Cafe, folks, because you only have a week to devour those tasty bites.
