"Try the Thali at Udupi, the combo platter for veggie delights. And don’t forget to sample the deep-fried puffy goodness that is the poori. Make sure there are some spiced potatoes at your disposal, too." - Ashok Selvam

Udupi Palace - Review - Rogers Park - Chicago - The Infatuation

"This vegetarian spot’s specialty is dosa, which makes up a significant portion of the long menu. Udupi Palace’s versions of the South Indian dish have well-crisped edges, but taste over-fermented, and are served with a perfectly acceptable (if too salty) sambar. You’ll find plain dosas, ones filled with potatoes and onions or chutney and cheese, and varieties made with lentil flour instead of rice. The idlis are slightly better, and if you go early in the day (say, during lunch by yourself), you’ll likely get them with sambar that’s tangy and doesn’t taste too reduced. The restaurant is quiet, and ideal for a low-key dinner with friends or a weeknight dinner alone, but we suggest visiting Annapurna for a great vegetarian meal on Devon instead." - Adrian Kane & Veda Kilaru

"Khatwani isn’t waiting for the city or federal government to help at Tiffin and Udupi. Though rumors have swirled, he says both will still open and that he’ll just have to ride it out." - Ashok Selvam
