New Menu @ Au Bon Pain | Bangalore
01:34
There are a large number of cafes in Bangalore city and in
all of India for that matter, out of which most of them have sprung up in the
past 1-2 years.
We quite recently visited a renowned cafe, for trying out a
few additions they made in their menu and most of these additions are
definitely worth a try!
Without further ado, the cafe we visited is none other than
Au Bon Pain, which is spread out all across the country now and because of
their quality products they are very well known. This outlet is situated in CMH
road, Bangalore and the locality has a lot of energy in the air.
Not much to mention about the ambiance because all the
outlets have the same decor. The decor is quite classy though and not at all
loud. Their staff is very courteous and to be honest the cleanliness of this
store in particular is quite appealing.
Coming down to the new items: They have launched a few items
called cone-wich, a chicken keema kouign-amann, banana walnut muffin, crème and
mango custard Danish, raspberry crème croisbun, croi-mosa, a bagel poha sandwich,
cinnamon buns and a few coolers for the summer.
We found the chicken keema preparation to be the best
undoubtedly! It looks more like a quiche, but with a puffed head. The head is
covered with herbs and a big bite with the herbs and the spicy keema tasted
phenomenal! It is quite spongy as well, but slightly oily.
The croi-mosa was very interesting. It is basically a fusion
of a croissant and a samosa and they really did a good job! The stuffing was very
fragrant, balanced and tasty. The whole thing looks sort of like a croissant
but has a crunch like a samosa.
The cone-wich has many variants: one chicken, a mushroom and
eggplant and a tandoori paneer variant. We tried the last one and it was a
different experience to be honest. The item is served in a cup and the
advantage of this cone design is that the stuffing runs deep and you get the
real deal till the end. Taste wise, it was a bit too tangy for comfort. It was
pretty overpowering and the taste of the paneer was masked. The sweet corns
were a good addition though.
The banana walnut muffin was fantastic! It was soft and
spongy with the essence of banana throughout and few chunks of walnut deep
within. We really liked this one and this is highly recommended.
Both the Danish were pretty similar except for the layers on
top. They were flat shaped and very spongy. We liked the crème custard one more
as its flavour was more distinguishable.
The raspberry croisbun was a decent addition but it could
have been made better. The raspberry jam on top was the only flavour you will
get while biting through. If they added something more inside it could have
tasted better. The cinnamon buns were small but packed a punch. The sweetness
was well balanced and the flavour was not overpowering.
The poha bagel combo was kind of funny but taste wise quite
impressive. The presentation was very good and on top of that, the poha was
very flavoursome. The bagels were thin, crunchy and had a cheese coating.
Now for the main attraction in the summers: the coolers! They
introduced many variants including the banana yoghurt cooler and the papaya
orange cooler.
We tried the papaya orange cooler and it was very
refreshing. The flavours were distinguishable and well balanced.
We also tried the frozen mint cooler which is the “old is
gold” type. It was even more refreshing!
The new additions are definitely impressive and have a great
variety. They are handpicked to cater to the palate of a wide variety of
people.
Hope this post helps out a fellow foodie in need!
Hope this menu lasts, because we will definitely be trying
some of the items again soon!
Till next time—bon appétit!
