1947 Restaurant, Chinese restaurant in Bangalore South, India
1947 Restaurant is a Chinese-Indian vegetarian restaurant in Bangalore South, spread across two floors. The space is divided into several sections that can seat groups of different sizes, from small tables for two to larger shared areas.
Sino-Indian cuisine developed through Chinese immigrant communities that settled in Indian cities during the 20th century, gradually mixing their techniques with local ingredients. The restaurant takes its name from 1947, the year India gained independence, placing its identity within that broader story.
The name 1947 refers to the year India became independent, which gives the restaurant a layer of meaning beyond its food. The menu reflects a long-standing connection between Indian vegetarian cooking and the Chinese culinary traditions brought by early immigrant communities in cities like Kolkata.
The restaurant serves both lunch and dinner, with hours that can vary by day, so checking ahead before your visit is a good idea. Reservations are worth considering for evenings, as the dining room tends to fill up during peak hours.
Sino-Indian cuisine is one of the few fusion traditions in the world that developed entirely outside its country of origin and became a distinct culinary style in its own right. At this restaurant, only vegetarian versions of these dishes are served, which is rare even by Indian standards, since most Sino-Indian spots still offer meat options.
