Best Seafood Dishes In Bengaluru, Coastal Restaurant At The Gateway Hotel Bengaluru, Top Rated Seafood Dishes at Karavalli. Aquafest
In nearly three decades of its existence, Karavalli at The Gateway Hotel Bengaluru has distinguished itself as an establishment that serves the country's finest South West Coastal cuisine. This has made the speciality fine dining restaurant an absolute must-visit in the city with patrons highly recommending a meal here.
What patrons also await is a much loved, annual seafood festival that the restaurant has been hosting since its existence.
In this episode of Gourmet On The Road, Food Lovers’ Editor, Kripal Amanna visits Karavalli to savour all the dishes on offer as part of this very special Aquafest menu. He meets with Executive Chef of The Gateway Hotel, Naren Thimmaiah to understand what makes this festival as popular. He then sits down to enjoy a whopping 14-dish meal.
BABY LOBSTER JIREM MIREM
chunky baby lobster meat marinated and cooked in a cumin (jirem) and fresh pepper (mirem) masala. you taste the byadgi chilli as opposed to the pepper in this warming masala.
rs 1850. (25.80 usd)
9/10
GOAN OCTOPUS CHILLI FRY
i love the sweetness of the tomato in this preparation, the octopus however, has a bite that borders on being chewy. the flavours of this dish is one you would enjoy in a shack somewhere on the beaches of goa.
rs 1200. (16.75 usd)
7/10
KOONDAL PORICHATU
the batter-fried masala coated squid is cooked to springy perfection and the masala has penetrated all the way through. the fresh acidity of a squeeze of lime cradles that gentle spicing of the squid. this is the sort of dish that would make for a very happy bar snack.
rs 1200. (16.75 usd)
9/10
WHOLE SILVER POMFRET RECHEADO
this dish of whole fried silver pomfret is a taste of goa! liberally coated in the sweet, tart and hot goan recheado masala, both inside and out, you taste notes of the goan palm vinegar and the aggressive punch of chilli as you devour the dish.
rs 1200. (16.75 usd)
8.5/10
TIGER PRAWN MALABAR STYLE
a signature dish at karavalli i keep returning for! these meaty tiger prawns are first fried to perfect scrumptiousness and then tossed in a vivacious masala of shallots, tomatoes and pepper.
rs 1800. (25.10 usd)
10/10
SEA CRAB GHEE ROAST
these meaty sea crabs, cooked in a ghee roast masala are divine! i love the mild sweetness of that crab meat (tastes just like the ocean!). the butteriness of that well rounded masala embraces the natural flavours of the crab.
rs 1450. (20.20 usd)
9/10
KOLI BARTHAD
a speciality here on the menu, this is a dish that hails from coorg. pieces of chicken are pan fried in a bunch of spices and kachampuli. the deeply roasted spices that have melded together as one.
rs 995. (13.88 usd)
8.5/10
MUTTON STEW
this is a textbook syrian christian stew with the mellow coconut base carrying just the subtlest hint of spicing. the meat is soft, you taste its nourishment in every strand.
rs 1150. (16.05 usd)
10/10
PRAWN CALDEEN
this goan-style curry is a pleasant melange of flavours. you taste the freshness of the coriander, the spice of the green chilli, raspy bite of the ginger and the creaminess of the coconut in the sauce. the prawns are juicy having absorbed all that goodness.
rs 1450. (20.20 usd)
9/10
ALAPPUZHA MEEN CURRY
the deep, spice notes in this alleppey fish curry catches hold of your palate from the first bite. the seer, a meaty fish, is the right medium to convey and carry these bold flavours of coconut, ginger and raw mango.
rs 1150. (16.05 usd)
9.5/10
DODOL
my favourite way to end a meal at karavalli is with the dodol, a goan dessert made with rice flour that has been well roasted with palm jaggery and loads of butter! it is rich and dark, each bite is lush, buttery yet dry.
rs 475. (6.60 usd)
9/10
KASHI HALWA
the ghee glistens in this translucent kashi halwa. the ash gourd is flavoured with saffron, you also sense a hint of acidity in this dessert.
rs 475. (6.60 usd)

This episode is the absolute crowning glory of all episodes! Thoroughly enjoyed your descriptions of the fresh ingredients and the taste it imparts on your palette, (along with pricing details). Keep it up!
More of Kerala recipe not our coastal region
Food Lovers TV they way the episodes are presented is what should be appreciated at the outset.
And offcourse your choice of eateries be it big or small are really nice for anybody to get the true local flavour ! Love the way you Rate them most of them are agreeable .
Kept it going ! 👍
Really this is worthless
I think u spend 1lakh for one meal...
Most lucky person on Earth & that's one & only Kripal ❤️
Do they have finance or EMI options 🤪
Rajesh Telang LoL 😂
Hahaha😁
Yes...it's called work that extra overtime to afford this meal LOL! I would.
Hey it was joke
😆😆
That was literally 42 minutes of Food Romance... just loved it.😁
I am so obsessed with seafood I search for seafood videos and binge watch them. I must say this one is THE BEST SEAFOOD VIDEO on TH-cam!! That of course implies your great production quality & excellent presentation. Very refreshing to watch. Love from Bangladesh.
No dish is below 1k.. Quite an expensive one.. Would be worth for sure.. But please preferably show us the affordable options in town 😄
Hi Nikhila, we love to explore great food across all price points. From restaurants that you can go more frequently to those that are great for a special occasion. Most of the establishments that we feature are rather accessibly priced. Hope you enjoyed the watch.
I will go by it once a year for the quality in Bangalore if your bill needs to be down please go to Mangaluru visit the cradle of Karnataka Sea food
Do not think of price give importance to quality and taste , most of the hotel use same masala only meat change , so there can sell them for 1/4 of the price
@@FoodLoversTV So this only for those who have got the easy money at their dispense. Get real man
Very expensive
Loved the chef's way of explaining things and smiling all the while.One person cooler than Kripal Ammana is Mr. thimaana. Although I am a vegetarian myself I m quiet impressed with the utensils and the cooking style of the foods. Especially loved the Bharanis of pickels...
Sir you are one of the best Gourmets in India .
Your explanation of a dish and it’s taste and way of showing the signature dishes of a particular hotel is Simple awesome ...
What a documentary. Classic.
The adjectives you use are unheard of and phenomenal.
Can truly be labeled as India's official presentation of the Karavali cuisine to the World.
I need to spend my 2 years savings to offord this food
Someone calculated that total was 16K. But, he ordered all dishes just for demostration. If two people go for a meal, per head cost should be around 2000 to 3000, for a sufficiently satisfying meal. I am sure you earn way more than that :p
You must be ashamed of yourself then
bangalorean says he cannot afford whreas he earns 30lpa
@@mahadevisutar1436 why do you say that? gold digger. how much do you earn tell that before commenting shit like this?!!!!!
Mahadevi Sutar you are not matured enough to understand what Rajath Gowda really meant is, it’s not worth spending saved money on a restaurant that costs easily 3-4K for a single person to have a good full meal.
If you think rajath Gowda is unable to earn the money to have food in this restaurant then you must be a dumb as no one in this world.
I love the dishes at karavalli.
Tiger prawns malabar style
are my favourite .been their customer for more than a decade now. i take my family atleast once or twice a month without fail.trust me its one the best places in banglore to taste authentic south indian sea food cuisine.love their service they have never disappointed me once great food jus love em💖💖💖
I'll visit this restaurant in 50 years when I can afford it..
True, its too costly
True he paid 16400 to all this.😧
@@roopapai4886 and he earns one zero extra from TH-cam 😀😀
We wish! 😀
Although the catch in that, after 50 more years, even if you are alive, doctors would have advised you against such greasy food. So, go now instead :)
Keep going...so tempting when you said "we can taste the ocean in this crab"... Your description s are fu....g awesome and tempting...keep going.
I think dis fest is the most costliest u had.looks fantastic tastiest seafood.👏
Nostalgic ! nostalgic !! nostalgic !!!
As a hotel mgmt trainee,i had trained in d Karavali restaurant back in 1994.As d video played,i cd visualise d restaurant n kitchen n i must say not much has changed . The ambience, kitchen,jars n utensils all looked so familiar.
Chef Thimmaiah still sounds d same...humble and a person with sea of knowledge on food...good to know hes still creating magic !
ive started watching ur videos only recently n love d way u present n njoy d delicasies u taste...Those expressions r priceless!! Looking forward to posting many more videos...Thank u n keep up d good work! cheers!!
Watching more videos*
I am sure such episodes are necessary to keep the FLT/GOTR interesting. There may be thousands of those watching the show who may want to go and try here and vice versa. Good episode, the baby pomfret and the tiger prawns were stand out by the looks. I don't eat sea food, but thoroughly enjoyed watching it.
Summarizing many comments posted here in few words..
Sea food. 'See' food. "C" food.
I am a vegetarian who don't usually like watching non veg food vlogs, but never here...... the way you describe the delicacies is just amazing sir
Love it
Appreciate the work
Thank you, Harshith. 🙏
Well presented.. I’m a vegetarian but love the way u show the dishes.
Once in 6months type of restaurant.... just amazing variety .... ... as always ... beautiful review
The prawns look so heavenly. I will try to cover this restaurant if I ever visit Bangalore
You must. These prawns draw me back to the restaurant each time. 😋
Kripal sir announce byadgi chillies are from Haveri district in the next video...Dharwad is our neighbouring district,signify what is from where let all notate it
Real Food lover, like the way you calmly discuss the food and nothing else. I think this was missing from lot of other food shows. Really appreciate your efforts and getting more & more details of food and it's taste.
Love ur show sir .... Show some affordable mangaluru sea food options available in bengaluru .
Hi Ronald, I did recently feature Mangalore Pearl too. Perhaps you missed the video, here's a link to the same. th-cam.com/video/TC2ZtXffRVE/w-d-xo.html
Visit The Konkan. On St. Mark's Road
Yes, Karavalli is an expensive place to dine in, but it's one of those delightful experiences that you look forward to after working hard, or saving up for a while, just like you would for a travel adventure. A meal here is one of those luxuries in life which are actually worth it. If you want to celebrate a really special occasion, something that you'd like to remember for a long time, this is it. The ambiance - both inside and outside - truly transport you to a different world, and as for the food, well, it's quite simply some of the tastiest fare you can eat in India.
Spot on, Vinayak. Some restaurants, one can visit often, some perhaps best reserved for a super special occasion. Karavalli belongs to the latter category. 🙂🙏
I wasn't a fish lover till date!But Now😛 , Your video has ignited my senses. I am looking forward to visit the Karavali region and try the ghee roast for sure and probably the tiger prawn.. The video was brilliantly represented. Looking forward for more of such wonderful tempting and inspiring videos. Well done Team Food lover's..👌
This show is so addictive, can't get my eyes off. I am surely trying this restaurant 😃
Love that automatic spice grounder they showed.
Pol Geel it’s called kadepina kal
Very Nice, the ambience, cuisine, hospitality & also the host, just splendid n mouth watering!!! But it's expensive & will burn a hole in one's pocket.
And they just made it to the Asia's Top 100 Restaurants List. Amazing!
Byadgi is near to Haveri, not Darwad.
The ultimate video of u, the chef was handsome. All the Starters dishes and deserts were looking awesome and colourful and of course mouthwatering. The best part of the video is u ate all them with hand and the disappointing part of the video is that blink of menu i saw and the prices mentioned.
Your video presentation skills are very good by seeing the video we are feeling the dishes really. Your sentence framing regarding the food is simply awesome
Iam not so rich. But Iam so lucky to taste the same menu on daily basis in my home prepared by my mother hands . 😚
Your best video of all time....great job in filming all the dishes like a poetry
I can almost smell the rich aromas coming out of Karavalli's kitchen just by this video! Should I ever have the great fortune of traveling to Bengaluru - Karavalli will definitely be on my list of places to visit.
Me while watching this, I always keep my dictionary aside! 😂
1800rs for 3 prawns
Means 600rs for 1 prawn
I can have 1kg mutton/3 kg chicken in price of 1 prawn..🙄
Really love the you enjoy your food with extreme simplicity
Looks so delicious.. M sure it tasted Heavenly.. Dat meal costed more than 15k !! Wow.. Extremely good video though.. Will visit once for sure!! Thnk u for such a detailed review..
u present yourself very well, neatly dressed and perfect presentation
Beautiful and colorful dishes. It's costly but I heard it got the quality, tasty dishes. I added this in my must visit restaurants in Bengaluru.
Good move, Abhilash. Some restaurants, one can visit often, some perhaps best reserved for a super special occasion. Karavalli certainly deserves a visit in the latter category. And they do have tiffin and thaali meals too that are more accessibly priced. 🙂🙏
I like the mental calibre of Kripal Anna plus his excellent vocabulary that's what makes me so hungry with his description..
verry costly
but you'r video is verry colorfull oll time
good bless you sir ✌🤙
Yes, the food here is expensive... But the the way you have presented is PRICELESS 👌
I applied bajaj finance to eat food this restaurant with my family.
Ha ha ha
😂😂😂
😆😆
🤣🤣
😜😂
I'll have to sell my kidneys to afford this food.
Once you sell it replacing with a new one will be way more costlier..
Shouldn’t be more then 10k for 2 persons ... your kidney is way more expensive..
Don't sell your kidney
Correct reply Tiffany
He will prepare Kidney fry & present your own Dish..
I'm jealousy of this person, he is really blessed.
The chef mentioned Red Snapper whereas it was actually Raja Rani (called as Pink perch)
Kripal the spices, masala itself make the taste , the food tangier than anything else .Lucky person u have the taste of everything in south .( NEVILLE)
Ultimate Seafood Joint.. Konkani wow... Missed this spot Anna... uLTIMATE cRAB Anna...
This man spent 13k or more to do this video or to show this, appreciate this man... please give a like
Dear sir this is perhaps your best video although I have not seen all as I am new to the channel, As a foodie I believe exploring great food is most important and you are doing it. Cost doesn't matter because great things are a little high in price. I believe you don't get such food and ambience everywhere.
Amazing dishes.... Keep on doing the great work sir
This is experience for special occasion people, they need to charge that to run this operation n fresh ingredients
Thank you for showing us what Karavali has to offer. It is always nice to have a fellow foodie's opinion before trying out a not so cheap place 😁.
Honest Expression, love the way u demonstrate. Sense of taste with a touch is true, you are cool.
Hi we dont have to go to south bangalore to food street to have twistatos etc. Now it is available at Jayamahal extension at scopps n fries next to shiva shankar chats. Twistatoes, Capsicum Bajji, Bread Bajji, Pineapple Bajji, sandwiches, dragon smoke wafers, burgers, pizzas and french fries pizza
Fantastic job Kripal!! Loved the way you interacted with the chef and got into the intricacies and hats off to the chef as well for a fitting response. Best wishes and keep going.
After completing my food I have join as a waiter to pay my bill...
😂😂😂🤣
First time am seeing u... e video nodida mele nanu ogle beku anistide. Thank u so much.. for telling us... am a big fan of karavagi or mangalore side sea foods... ❤️🥰...
But am little bit scare of tasting crab... 🙄🙊...
I am from bangalore so.. am so scary about carb how to eat and all.. 😅
Kitchen looks very hygienic 😍
Wow. So much variety
Marvelously good appetite if the episode was done in one meal. I'm already full looking at all the starters and the main course on the table.
Loved the video and presentation details. 😊
I have never read so many hilarious comments under a single VLOG !
I wanna sit at that table & eat all the prawns, calamari rings, fishy & crabs ..........yummmmmmmm!!!😋
It's a good video about the sea food fest. The way of presentation is also impressive.
Kripal, You are really superb!..aadds more to my must visits..Can you pls consider reviewing a vegetarian dish also when you are in a non veg restaurant. Also pls add more to veg content to videos.for those veggies accompanying...
Hi Mahesh, appreciate your suggestion. Btw, we do have a vegetarian mostly vegetarian playlist on the channel. Here's a link to the same th-cam.com/video/snd-CkjpKa0/w-d-xo.html
This is called seafood heaven😍😍😍
Very nice job.. Can see how much effort has gone into it.. One request though.. Please make these videos in two episodes of 20 minutes each so that it doesn't take too much of time for viewers..
Thank you, and appreciate your point, Yogesh. Yes, we could, but sometimes videos uploaded in multiple parts aren't convenient to spot from a viewer perspective. You could however watch this video in parts if you've signed in, TH-cam history makes it convenient to resume from where you stopped last. Cheers!
Its taste is more important than the price of food. Only those who find happiness by providing tongue tips are true eaters.
Delicacies at its peak. If I am lucky enough to have such delicious food, I will definitely come to Bangalore to dine in this hotel restaurant.
Just to eat, we do not eat such food everyday.
The desserts add up to my usual bill when I dine out.
Really when I watch your vlogs you are my teacher like sitting in my class room
Kripal sir enjoys himself when ever he haves good and quality food 😁😁😊
Hello sir , I just saw your video and love the way of your conversation with it was detailed with all the key points . And the way you present info about restaurant and there unique dishesh and there prising is damn good . Your one of best food vloger I have seen yet . Keep posting the video ,we love them .
Again an awesome episode 👌.. u have great sense of vocabulary.. my heart melted when I heard the word 'ghashi' and 'barani'.. aaaww that was soothing to hear.. great picturization, nice background music, colorful food, on the bang presentation, that popy smile when the food goes into ur mouth 😂, the roar we hear when u pronounce "masala" and many more makes this channel too special.. keep up the good work.. more love to gourmet on the road. ♥️.. This time ur hat couldn't be accommodated on that busy fat foodie table. 😍
Thank you, Anudeep, grateful for your kind words.
I will definitely come to karavali gate hotel and have all those food which you ate here. Thanks for the video.
Amazing...mouth watering seafood Brunch... awesome
I order Goan food from Reagan’s and their prices are SO MUCH cheaper and they’re authentic too..as a Goan myself I can just see the food and tell whether it’s ACTUALLY Goan or not and trust me so far nothing from this place that was Goan really looked right as a regular customer of Reagan’s I suggest you all to try them out because it’s ACTUALLY authentic and you get your money’s worth
Omg yes I love their food too!
My mouth is watering 😋. Love the way ur narrate ..
This is a romance with food.....wohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh wt a way of explanation....superb my dear krupali sirr...urs way of explanation is expensive than food.
We bee this place, it was our great time with tasty and variety foods. We met south indian kerala chef he is from kannur
Very nice person, and he explained the history and every things . It was nearly closing on that day I think around 10.30 pm. And the staff was so excellent and polite.
One of the best episodes till date. Expensive but worth at least one visit I guess.
Yes, it certainly is. happy eating!
Hv been visiting Karavalli with guest/clients since 2005! Awsm place!
I am sure client or guest pays!
I like ur way of eating it's so delicious
Aap se jada koi Guma nahi Bangalore sir ji 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Omg what a lucky person you’re amazing bro ...
For all the combined sea food prices in Karavalli, in Singapore we get a full boat of seafood platter even much better in taste and quality.
U could eat almost at par level food at Mangalore kitchen , HSR or royal garden ,bhadrappa layout Hebbal ...
These both are really bomb for reasonable price ...
I think kripal should also promote resteraunts which are under rated may be due to lack of publicity or location of place affecting and make it a series as well ...this could also be a slight subtle version of kitchen nightmares
Superb sir👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻😍😍
Love the way u eat n explain
Loved the process and preparation.. I personally love sea food would love to visit the place soon❤😊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆
Loved style of mourning when you are tasting the food 😃
Very costly, in 1900 i can have all the dishes u had but no lobster n octopus
Wah .. so nice to see great food. Thanks to TH-cam and of course you that we can enjoy seeing all the great food as I would never be able to actually go there but this let's me dream.
You could have uploaded this video like two parts. Anyhow, it was good.
Appreciate your point, Suraj. Yes, we could, but sometimes videos uploaded in multiple parts aren't convenient to spot from a viewer perspective. You could however watch this video in parts if you've signed in, TH-cam history makes it convenient to resume from where you stopped last.
Ultra luxury dishes
Ultra luxury video
Ultra lenthy video
But xellent video

NOT FOR MIDDLE-CLASS PEOPLE. TOO MUCH COSTLY.
Not for rich class also. Only for ambanis
