Wan Ley Lunch and Sue's Kitchen Dessert 3.14/4.00

Wan Ley opened more than 12 years ago in a small space in Lakshmipuram. Back in the day when I was giving Bangalore Bytes and Gujju directions to the place the conversation went like so

Gujju: "So where is it?"
Me: "Just beyond Ulsoor in Lakshmipuram, behind the graveyard...."
Gujju: "Let's go elsewhere"

I did manage to take them there after repeated assurances that the dead meat they were eating wasn't from the compound behind the restaurant's.

Last week, Recluse, Dibyo, BB and I did lunch at Wan Ley on Krishna Temple Road in Indiranagar (they moved about 3 km away from the graveyard). It's always been a comfortable-fall back reassuring kinda place. The interiors and cutlery are all rather spartan. The man running the place, Thomas, is always behind the counter with a warm smile on his face. The food is simple and uncomplicated with consistent quality. Everyone has a favourite Indian Chinese place, this is mine.

Soups were ordered, Chicken Wonton for Dibyo and me and Hot(?) Corn Chicken for BB and Recluse.

Dibyo and BB also polished off one Pork-something. Guessing it was good.


Main course was simple enough, Egg Rice and Veg Noodles accompanied by Hunan Chicken. Chung's has better soup but overall I feel Wan Ley is better and is good value for money.


After that, we sauntered across the road to getoffurass and checked out some adventure gear including this evil looking stainless steel machete. Nice.

Dibyo then ran off to work and for various reasons the 3 of us decided not to :-)

Dessert was had at Sue's Kitchen. 4 desserts for 3 people. Pineapple upside-down, Chocolate truffle, some nutty cake and Rum cake. That Rum cake was soaked in rum. Yo-ho-ho.

Resolution #1: Write reviews the same day as the meal, so I'll remember what I've eaten, photographs notwithstanding.
