It's time for the King Of Fruits and that means restaurants, bars, and cafes in Bangalore are creating everything from drinks to dessert using the good old mango. Some are even going all out and introducing an entire mango menu, so without further ado here are some of the must-try mango dishes in Bangalore in 2021. 

Shiro

With the mango season and summer in full swing, its only fair you honour this fruit and the heat by quenching your thrist with a surprise, more specifically, a Mango Surprise from Shiro. Fresh mango muddle with lime juice, mango syrup and juice, and the best bit -- glugs of white rum and ice, we really don't see a more fitting cocktail for the season!

Misu

No need to troop all the way to Thailand for some sticky rice and mango. Just set GPS to Misu on St Marks Road, or Indiranagar, and order up this dessert. Made from sweet sticky rice, coconut milk and garnished with chunks of fresh mango, you may want to skip main in favour of two portions of this! They also have a refreshing Shredded Green Mango Prawn Salad (a veg version too) and a delicious Golden Fried Prawns with Mango Relish, for those after savoury mango dishes.

Smoor Chocolate Lounge

For summer, Smoor has these lovely mango cupcakes, mango macarons, mango truffles and the star special, the Alphonso Sundae -- that is, vanilla bean ice cream topped with fresh Alphonso mangoes -- a mango lover’s dream come true! Prices start from INR 80 upwards, and they’re available at all Smoor outlets.

Sriracha

Adding tropical flavours to their very Asian menu, Sriracha at UB City and Indiranagar is bringing some mango to your plate. Lo and behold, the Barbecue Butterfly Prawns Satay served with a delectable, seasonal sweet and sour Alphonso Mango Salad. Priced at INR 585, pair this with a chilled cocktail or mocktail, and you’re good to go! 

Hopshaus

Hopshaus is celebrating the mango season in full swing with not one but two mango desserts that boast of many mango based element. You need to try them both, starting with the Fresh Mango Creme Brulee made with a crumbly mango biscotti and pistachio cream, moving on to Mango Ohh Mango, a fruit and chocolate dessert featuring homemade mango ice cream over fresh mango pound cake, almond creme anglaise and Belgian chocolate mousse. Mmmh, mmh, mmh!

Magnolia Bakery

It would be sin if we didn't recommend cheesecake and Mango Cheesecake at that from one of our favourite bakeries in town! Magnolia Bakery is keeping you cool and your tropical palate happy this summer with delicious, unbelievably light dessert of the season  -- a vanilla cheesecake base sitting atop a bed of buttery graham crackers and topped with the piece de resistance, slices of the sweetest and freshest mangoes.
