Belur Cuisine South India | Belur Traditional Food

Belur

The people of this city are spiritual by nature and hence stay aloof from meats and chickens. In fact they don’t have any non vegetarian recipes among the pilgrims but the tourist or visitors coming do have non vegetation items.

Some hotels and restaurants do serve bears, wine and other soft drinks of valuable drinks. Foreigners and some Indian visitors do take meat, egg and fishes.

Drinks here add to the delicacy of delicious foods served to them. The vegetarian items are also very tasty and aromatic with spices added to it. The traditional way of serving foods on the leafs of Banana are the most beautiful way of dining in natural setting.

There’s free lunch at sringeri too, but we decided to eat outside and not wait for the meals at 12:30 PM. We had lunch at a

With the musical horn blown almost every other minute at bends and intersections, and trusting the directions memorized by practice, we made our way through narrow terrain roads to Kollur.

4 Pm at the mookambigai temple at Kollur – I was fast asleep in the car and refused to wake up. I would blame it on the jet lag. Roads got better as we left Kollur and came down on the highway towards Goa, our next stop at 5 pm was Murudeswara.

A view of the ghats, the beach and the Arabian sea, and in all magnanimity, the giant statue of Shiva, on a small hill alongside the sea, the tallest gopuram – still under construction – this is Murudeswara, a beautiful tourist/religious destination near the Karnataka-Maharashtra border.

The place was so refreshing that we immediately forgot the tiredness of bumpy roads and over 20 hrs of travel, we freshened up at the hotel and started exploring.

We went up the hill adoring the gigantic statues as my mom-in-law narrated the significance and story behind each of the statues. We took a stroll along the pathway around the Shiva statue and enjoyed the sunset.

Immediately after the sunset we went to the beach, spent some time in the waters and took a boat ride around the region. Murudeswara has a lot to offer to all kinds of tourists and we surprisingly, did see a lot of non-hindus, which is not very common in a religious center.

Camel rides, boat rides, parasailing were some of the other activities we could choose from. My only regret was, we just had a night at Murudeswara.

Restaurants and hotels en route and at destinations:

The first hotel we stopped at for dinner was an Agarwal restaurant right on the outskirts of Bangalore before we hit the highway. It would be interesting to note that teh name "hotel" refers to restaurant alone. Acoomodations are named "lodge".

The second stop was at a pretty decent sized hotel - named Kamat hotel near Belur.

The first night was spent at the lodge right adjacent to the Annapoorni temple. They did provide an extra bed for some additional money and hot water could be bought for Rs5 per buckt early morning.

Our 2nd night at Murudeswar, we checked in to the 5 star resort RNS, alongside the sea. The room had the exotic Gitopadesh statue view on one side and the sea on the other. They had an excellent dinner buffet at the sea lounge in the hotel and a breakfast buffet too.

Idlis (steamed rice & lentils) or Vada with sambhar and chutney, Dosa, Puri-Sabji, Poha (dry) and curd rice are typical menu items.
