( Pork Pepper Fry)If you are a Costal food freak & looking at eating some fish, try out 'Mangalore Pearl'. Situated in 3 Coles Road, Cleveland Town, Frazer town, Bangalore with a rather nondescript sign board. This place goes by word of mouth and is quite in the heart of the city. Nothing very fancy, but good old world ambiance.
I'm not a Bengali who drools every time you mention 'Fish', but the place is nice, food included. Plus I'm a sucker for Graphiti & the walls are interesting to say the least. The wooden bench type seats add to the charm. A place for a family get-together or buddies from office.
'Mangalore Pearl' serves, Sardines, Pomfret, Squid, Prawns and a host of other sea food. They have Mangalore delicacies, prawns in coconut curry, Masala fish fries, etc. It is recommended that you try out the Mangalorean way and have a Sanna ( A kind of Idly) along with the fish. If you want to have something different try their Squid Butter Garlic or Cocoom Juice, made from a coastal fruit. I found the prices slightly on the higher side. A single serving of fish ( 1 piece of Pomfret & about 2 pieces of Sardines) is anything starting from Rs 250-300. Overall a good experience.
