Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Bangalore: Where to Book a Dinner for Two
Bangalore is one of the easiest Indian cities to eat vegetarian well, and not just at the traditional darshinis. Several hotels now run full vegetarian set menus rather than a handful of side dishes, which means you can book a proper vegetarian dinner for two in advance and know exactly what you're getting.
