The Balanced Plate Cafe - Bengaluru

We started with the Mushroom Cappuccino, which is a Mushroom soup made with four types of mushrooms and herbs, with a hint of Shitake flavor. The Zucchini soup is also a must-try. The toast with fresh whole wheat bread and Hummus was mesmerizing. The Mushroom Hummus toast and Chicken Hummus toast were both delicious. The Royyala nallakaram, a prawn dish cooked with black pepper, was mouthwatering. The shrimp cocktail and chickpea cocktail were both balanced and tasty appetizers. The baked potatoes spiced up with red chillies and herbs were perfect for the winter. The Balanced plate concept offers a variety of dishes in just one plate. The Kichdi was delicious with Paanch phoran and palak. The green eggs coated with pesto and served with baked potatoes and grilled vegetables were also excellent. Meat lovers would enjoy the Chicken Thai Curry and the Steamed Chicken with Shitake mushrooms. The Hebenero grilled chicken with pesto pasta was a favorite. The English Roast Chicken, marinated with spices and served with mushrooms and baked potatoes, was the star of the day. For desserts, the brownies were the best we've ever had. The orange cheesecake, coffee, raspberry, and double chocolate were also delicious. The pure Arabica coffee was excellent, giving a kick of filter coffee even in the Cappuccino. Cheers to an excellent dining experience at this restaurant.

I am delighted to have discovered this restaurant that offers both healthy and delicious food. I was not only impressed by the taste of the food, but also by the presentation and the generous portion sizes for the price. I highly recommend trying the mushroom cappuccino, chicken hummus toast, and Dal kichdi. The food is not fried here; it is either baked or grilled using only butter or olive oil, which enhances the flavors. The extensive main course menu offers a wide variety of options, all served perfectly and packed with nutrition. This restaurant is now on my list of favorites. If you haven't already, I recommend giving it a try.

This cafe is truly unique compared to other dining establishments. True to its name, The Balanced Plate is a collaboration between two friends - one a food enthusiast and the other a nutritionist. The result? Balance! Before diving into the food, let's talk about the location and atmosphere. Situated on a bustling street in Banashankari, the cafe is easily accessible from the main road. Parking can be a challenge, but if you're lucky, you may snag a spot right in front of the cafe. The cozy space can accommodate around 30 patrons. Upon entering, you'll notice a merchandise wall where you can purchase their fresh preservative-free sauces, as well as a tempting display of desserts. The menu offers a variety of options from soups, salads, starters, main courses, balanced plates, desserts, coffee, and more. I highly recommend the Roasted Pumpkin Salad for its delicious taste and incredible in-house peanut butter dressing. The Hummus with whole wheat pita bread was also a standout starter - the pita was unbelievably soft. When it comes to main courses, the Balanced Plates are a must-try as they provide a mix of carbs and proteins. I opted for the Grilled Chicken Breast, Peri Peri Chicken, Roast Chicken, and Grilled Prawns - all perfectly balanced and colorful. Despite trying multiple dishes, I didn't feel overly full at the end of the meal, yet I wasn't hungry either. The desserts, including the Peanut Butter Brownie, Chocolate Rocks, and Lime Almond Cake, were sugar-free and preservative-free yet still delicious. And don't forget to sample their Bold Cappuccino. The friendly chat with the owners and the valuable advice from the nutritionist made the experience even more worthwhile. I left realizing the importance of maintaining a healthy diet. A visit to The Balanced Plate may just change your perspective on food and health. Be sure to follow Platewithflavours on Instagram for more information.
