today's world. It offers every comfort and luxury but most importantly a piece
of Bangalore’s exciting history. Whether guests are on a super-charged business
trip or a relaxed getaway, the ambience charms everyone.

| » Masala Klub:
Masala Klub, the new restaurant at the Taj West End holds the key to a repertoire of influences which are a mélange of the best recipes from North and South India, adapted to a contemporary, light menu. Visually stunning, this restaurant is located by a 120 year old tamarind tree and serves up stylishly crafted native culinary fare in a sophisticated setting. Signature items include the Paperwali Machchi ( fish fillets drizzled with freshly ground peppercorns enveloped in parchment paper and char grilled without oil in an open pit) and Murg Khatta Pyaaz (a combination of chicken with pickled onions and brought to pleasing pungency with burnt garlic). Highlights of the experience include Masala Grill, where guests can create their own grills on stones that have been marinated in herbs and spices for over two weeks.
The Masala restaurants offer a unique dining experience which is the result of Grand Master Chef Hemant Oberoi's dream to retrace authentic North Indian cuisine. He traveled across extensively across regions to derive inspiration and to revive old cuisines for Masala Restaurants. The Chef's dream was to break the myth that Indian food is heavy and oily. Brushing aside the heavy butter and creamy gravies, the Chef recreated the authentic flavors by the smart use of the extra virgin olive oil. The result was the “Masala” brand -offering a beautiful blend of ancient Indian food culture mingling with the new. Masala Klub will offer a mix of three Masala restaurants Art, Kraft and Bay and also a range of cuisines from South India. Hence the name Klub – a mélange of all the Masala creations.
