Bengaluru's Culinary Scene Elevated with MOGLU's borderless cuisine

MOGLU is known as "The Edgy Veggie Restaurant," recently inaugurated its outlet in Bengaluru.

MOGLU is founded by Ankita Shree, a former IRS officer turned entrepreneur, and Dr. Kiran Narayanan, a computational physicist who transitioned to culinary arts at the age of 40 after training at the Institute of Culinary Education in New York, offers a cuisine that blends diverse cultural influences onto a single plate.

Operating under the umbrella of Mamacoco, a vegetarian-focused food and beverage group, MOGLU introduces all-day vegetarian dining options to the city, including breakfast, lunch, dinner, cafe selections, and alcohol-free beverages.

"Three things - more choice, better quality, and innovation, in our experience, are currently missing from the vegetarian dine-in segment. MOGLU is bringing to the city food that is inspired, creative, ingredient-driven, and generous. We serve sophisticated vegetarian food that can easily be a choice for a celebratory dinner for a vegetarian, meat-eater or a flexitarian” said Ankita Shree, positioned as Managing Director at MOGLU. 

The brand offers distinctive dishes such as the Buratta with Green Beans & Toasted Lentils, a fusion of traditional South Indian parippu usli and vethakozhumbu transformed into a warm salad featuring lentil usli and ginger-tamarind sauce.

Another standout is the Barbecue Mushroom Burger, featuring lion’s mane mushroomglazed with house hickory-smoked barbecue sauce, and served in double-raised potato burger buns made at the in-house bakery, accompanied by triple-cooked fries.

The menu also includes options like Spinach Coconut Lentil Soup, Massaged Kale, Beets and Paneer Salad, Crispy Okra and Tamarind, and Spaghetti Tempeh Bolognaise, showcasing a diverse range of flavors and textures.

MOGLU leads the way in the emerging trend of non-alcoholic beverages, blending techniques with locally sourced flavors such as kokum, jackfruit, and cardamom to craft a diverse selection of in-house base liqueurs reminiscent of Campari and Jamaican Rum.

These base liqueurs form the foundation of delightful zero-proof drinks, collectively known as "Zero" on the menu.

Among MOGLU's notable creations are the Limoncello, Venetian Campari Spritzer, Lychee Champagne, Amaro & Coke, and more.
