"A seven-decades-old fixture in the city's dining scene, this beloved café draws regulars for its fluffy idlis (steamed rice cakes) that come swimming in a pool of sambar (lentil stew); the richly flavored gravy is the real star and is poured generously from a distinctive ladle. Idlis smeared with podi (lentil and chilli powder) and crisp, golden-brown dosas (rice and lentil pancakes) are also standouts, and meals are commonly finished with frothy filter coffee." - SilverKris
