Bengaluru has a lot going for it especially where it’s spectacular nightlife is concerned. A trip to Bengaluru is incomplete without you trying out some of its amazing bars on offer. Ask a tippler and he will point out to you couple of his favourites, and the chances are of ‘Bang’ being one of them. Bang is Bengaluru’s ‘It’ bar and any bar-hopper worth his salt will know about it. The bar is one of the loveliest places to grab a drink in the city and on the scale of 1 to 10 in terms of ambience, it rates pretty high. Bang is part of the glitzy The Ritz Carlton Hotel and enjoys its wonderful location in style. Perched on the rooftop of the hotel, Bang looks over a bird’s eye view of Bengaluru city, which is truly a breath-taking sight.
Bang has a flawless reputation to uphold so having an excellent bar menu is for granted. Booze labels from all over the world are stocked here. A tippler can have a gala time drinking through the menu. Do give their signature cocktails a shot, they are infamously delicious, especially the tea-infused one. Sip on House of Bamboo or Pursuit of Prosperity before tackling the appetizers. Bang keeps a compact multi-cuisine menu, which can be enjoyed starting with, vegetable empanada, fiery chicken, pla lad prik, corn tempura, paneer tikka on skewer, buffalo chicken wings, vegetable samosa, mushroom salt & pepper and orange & lemon grass prawn. Still feel peckish? Dig in further with, achari tawa salmon, tenderloin slider, ham & cheese panini, stir fried prawn with Thai chilli basil, raan-e-murg and stir fried tofu chilly garlic sauce.
There is nothing like too many sweets. Shock your sweet tooth with a sugar rush generated by Bang’s splendid desserts. Have, mango macadamia mascarpone cake, warm chocolate cake & passion fruit and a selection of decadent ice creams. Savour this sinful course along with Bang’s gorgeous view. Couples are a common sight here, soaking in the bar’s romantic ambience. Best time to visit Bang would be in the evening when the entire bar lights up with LED lights. Décor is modern and stylish with several large nooks created for get together or small parties. The vibe is lively and youthful, as it generally is at bars like Bang. The bar may come across as expensive for some.
