This authentic Assamese restaurant is located in Koramangala, South Bengaluru. The décor is simple glass-topped tables and sturdy chairs with some traditional decor on the wall, and the latest Assamese chart-toppers on speakers form the atmosphere here. You must settle for the basic, 'Unlimited Veg Thali' (chicken, mutton, fish, pork and duck versions are available too) comprising rice, dal, stir-fried vegetable of the day, ‘Aloo Pithika’ (Assamese style mashed potato spiked with mustard oil and chillies), ‘Boror Tenga’ (dal fritters dunked in a light, tangy gravy), ‘Bengana Fry’ (fried aubergines) and papad, and then add on non-vegetarian mains such as ‘Murighanta’ (fish head cooked in dal), ‘Patot Diya Gahori’ (pork cooked with lettuce} or the 'Duck Curry'. 'Axomi’s Khorikat Pura Gahori' is chunks of juicy pork stuffed into a hollow bamboo skewer and grilled till done. The result is gorgeous smoky flavours in the meat. Do not forget to ask the staff if they have fresh stock of 'Bhut Jolokia Chillies', which you can buy off them.
