RICE IDLI
The idlis are soft and a hot, buttery treat when had with the ghee. The coriander in the idli adds to its flavour. The idli dissolves in the mouth when immersed in the nourishingly thick sambar.
rs. 33 (usd 0.5)

MEDU VADA
The vada exhibits a textbook crunch as it yields to the bite! Delicious with the sambar and comes alive with the spicy kick of the chutney.
Rs. 44 (usd 0.6)

RAVA IDLI
Made of roasted semolina, yoghurt and speckled with fresh coriander, toasted cashews, and lentils, the rava idli makes for a hearty breakfast. The creamy potato sagu is a flavourful accompaniment to the rava idli.
Rs. 60 (usd 0.8)

KHARA BATH
Fortified with carrots, slivers of green chilli and crested with a tomato slice, the khara bath is soft and crumbly, yet holds itself together. The pudina chutney helps tone down the tart notes of the lime and tomato.
Rs. 62 (usd 0.9)
8
KESARI BATH
This breakfast treat glistens with the lushness of ghee. Embellished with toasted raisins and nuts, the kesari bath here is rich in its texture owing to the shavige (rice vermicelli) and semolina mix.
Rs. 57 (usd 0.8)
9
MASALA DOSA
The dosa here is iconic and never disappoints. Made with a blend of three rice varieties, including two red rice varieties that lend a toasty colour tone, the dose is crisp outside and soft within. The palya is seasoned just right. Rs. 90 (usd 1.3)
10
PUDI DOSA
It’s soft, fluffy and big on flavours. You can taste the grainy crunch of lentils, the sharp, spicy notes of the chilli and the undertones of asafoetida. Tame its aggression with the palya and coconut chutney.
Rs. 95 (usd 1.3)

DAMROOT
Made of shredded pumpkin, semolina, raisins, nuts and tonnes of ghee, this MTR sweet is scented with cardamom.
