Remember strutting into Baroke, the nightclub at Krishna Palace Hotel at Nana Chowk that was open until the wee hours of the morning, ensuring our dancing feet didn’t need to end the party? This week, second-generation owner Saurabh Shetty gave it a new avatar as B-Lounge Cuisines & Cocktails, offering an old-school lounge format in new-age packaging.

Amid commercial shops, an emerald green door next to the hotel leads up to the lounge that is done up to cater to casual dinner-and-drinks catch-ups as well as late-night shenanigans. Different design nooks have been created for Insta-worthy photographs. A neon sign reads ‘A little party never killed nobody’, a zebra head pops out of the wall at the far end of the space, and a private area has artsy frames. There is a hint of an old-world charm in this new-world space.
