Everyone knows that I am a foodie. But most people don’t know that I love continental breakfasts and I am always hopping around town to find the best breakfast buffet in Bangalore.
I have had my share of disappointments over the years. A few years back, I decided to go to Zen, Leela Palace, Bangalore for breakfast and I fell in love with the spread. I was disappointed when I got to know that they had shifted breakfast to their new and revamped restaurant Citrus, Leela Palace over a year back.
But that disappointment did not last long. The new restaurant was even better in terms of the spread and I have come to the conclusion that this restaurant (Citrus – The Leela Palace) is the best in case you want to have an Indian fusion / continental breakfast whilst in Bangalore. Don’t get me wrong. I still love my MTR’s, CTR’s, Brahmins and Koshy’s. But they don’t serve such a huge spread in terms of continental breakfast.

Best Breakfast Buffet Bangalore – Citrus, Leela Palace
So why do I think Citrus is one of the best breakfast buffets in Bangalore? There are many reasons.
Huge Spread at Leela Palace Bangalore brunch:
This is one of the reasons that Citrus has the best buffet breakfast in Bangalore. They have such a huge spread and it is so difficult to choose. Most of the times we do not end up sampling even a tiny portion of the spread.
Variety at the Leela Palace Breakfast Buffets in Bangalore:
Citrus caters to so many cuisines. On a weekday, these are the things that you have to choose from:
- Cereal
- Fresh Fruits
- Sweet items like croissants, doughnuts, cupcakes etc. My favorite part of the buffet
- Salad items
- Bread Basket
- South Indian breakfast items like Dosa, Idli, Vada, Upma etc
- North Indian breakfast items like Aloo Paratha, Poori Baji, Samosas etc
- Pan Asian breakfast dishes like fried rice, noodles etc. I cannot eat this in the morning though.
- Selection of cold cuts for the non-vegetarians
- Waffles
- Pancakes
- Egg dishes such as omelettes, boiled eggs, scrambled etc. Chef is at your service
- The Mediterranean spread like Pita, Hummus, olives etc
