Restaurant review: The Bistro Story

Getting here can be complicated even with GPS. But we found The Bistro Story, thanks to its board. Getting a parking slot for lunch on a weekday was challenging.

Decor
Yes, I like the white walls, and the Warli work on them. However, something like 'Rosy Tea Stall' stretched across the top of one wall scares my sense of design a bit but I was distracted by a few old frames of gods and goddesses right above the kitchen floor. An old wooden swing being used as a table adds grace. It was quiet despite of an open kitchen and all the activity going inside.

Food
I started with a cool aam panna. Then I spot the watermelon soup on the board and asked for it. Hints of ginger and mint make the cold soup a pleasure. A salad with its olives and healthy colours from fresh veggies made my afternoon totally virtuous. Going with the waiter's recommendation, I was happy to dig into the eastern sharing platter laid out on a shallow wooden skillet. While chewing on the half moon shaped fattayar filled with spinach and feta cheese, I tried to pronounce Tzatziki in my head. I love the underlying taste of burnt chilli in the Baba Ganaush. I was disappointed with the rather dry herb crusted fish. I didn't take much time to polish off the gooey chocolate mud cake, though.

Pluses and minuses
TBS has a good thing going, except for its lack of parking space.
