A bunch of Bloggers in Bangalore recently had the chance of dining at Sattvam a sattvic restaurant recently, Here is more about what Sattvic food is and what Sattvam has to offer for it's customers!!
For
an object or food to be sattvic, it must be uncontaminated and should not
spread evil or disease in the world. On the contrary its presence must purify
the surroundings. Thus when an individual consumes such a food, he must feel
that he is eating pure food. The food should be healthy, nutritious and clean.
It should also not weaken the power or equilibrium of mind. This idea disallows
aphrodisiac or other drugs and intoxicants that can affect the mind in such a
way.
What
makes Sattvic food so unique and pleasurable is that all dishes are prepared
and served fresh. Leftover food is never served or consumed. Hence Sattvic
foods have a very low probability of forming ama, or toxic build up in the
body.
The food on offer was amazing, We couldn't make out that these items doesn't contain Onion or Garlic.
The evening started with a Welcome Drink, Keshar Shikanji.
This
was followed by a Soup the Broccoli Apple Shorbha. I had never had a Broccoli apple soup, It tasted great a perfect soup to start the evening.
We
were served with a platter of starters haribhari paneer taktaki
paneer
anardane ki tikka keshar badam tikki babycorn
aur meembu ke patte ki gilafi tabla aloo.
The
starters were perfect they were spicy they tasted like starters in normal restaurants.
The main course had
- Dal
makhani
- Amritras
ke kofte
- Aloo

If this wasn't filling enough, there were desserts too.. Made fresh and they are also Sattiv dishes,
We were offered Malai Ghewar, I completely was over joyed eating this is
a Rajasthani sweet traditionally associated with the Teej Festival.
There
was also assorted Bengali sweets on offer..
A
perfect way to end a great sattvic dinner. To know more about Sattvam
