Vaidya Upahar Gruha

The misal is not at all spicy but has its own unique attributes like green colour cut / rassa / sample , served with bread slice, poha , chivda and crunchy shev with prompt service. The atmosphere is major plus point its located in old vintage wada which has its own unique charm and it definitely takes you back to 1910s era. Traveling to this place is more enjoyable than misal , I took metro and got down at Kasaba metro station walked through picturesque lanes and reached there in 10 minutes.

This place enchants you with a classic, rustic charm. Vaidya uphar hruh has entered their 115th year this month. The roof is held with closely supported T bars, you sit on a sturdy teak chair and a heavy table. The walls are adorned with at least 30-40 yr old frameless pictures and menu items on slates. The full menu seems to be written daily. The place has ample service staff to take care of a full house in a courteous manner. Beware! The service staff shall shut the main entrance around 11.25 am for new customers, so be there latest by 11.15 in morning hours. I loved the Kairi Dal as a side dish along with must have misal and it all ended with a portion of Kharwas(Colostrum). It gave us a sense of fulfillment after a mildly spiced misal. Misal - Tasted fresh, mildly spiced , filling. Kairi Dal - it's a side dish , freshly cooked dry dal with bits of raw mango and seasoned with tadka of curry leaves, dry red chilli, jeera. Kharwas - Rightly sweetened and refreshingly flavoured with cardamom powder, gives a mild sense of caramel sugar. I'd prefer this instead of caramel custard honestly. I would want to visit this place again for that welcoming smile on Mr Vidya's face on the counter as if he knows your parents and grandparents well. The overall experience makes the rest of your day pleasant.

This is very old and rustic hotel. As per the board's and locals this is the oldest misal serving hotels of Pune. Misal flavor is very subtle compared to all others. Their serving is also different as they add fried poha on top of Ussal mixture and the very thin and light gravy of boiled usal is served separately. One can either choose bread slices or pav along with misal. More than misal we enjoyed the Khavaras which was fresh and yummy

Unique misal served with green gravy, a delicious and different dish. They are serving this since 120 years. Also tried the Batata Bhajji served with green chilli chutney. Chai ☕️ served in a cup and saucer was very well made. Vaidya upahara gruha proved that a restaurant with very limited menu maintaining premium quality can servile for centuries.

Vintage place to try a unique style misal, a very different misal with a green sample but absolutely pack with a spicy. Currently in their 115th year of serving this delicacy, it’s genuinely a must visit and a hidden gem.

Misal is Okay Okayish but the Old Skool vibes of the Places is what you like the most. Prompt Customer Service.

The vaidya upahar gruha has finally been ticked off my list as an iconic pune eatery. Proximity to Kasba peth metro station made it possible. The ambience is an old world charm which may make some people nostalgic and others may not be too enthused by the old world looks. The service is prompt. Don’t get fooled by the green watery misal here. It packs a spicy punch. The flavours are not akin to a typical misal. I recommend dipping the bread slice in the rassa before you try with the farsan. There is no matki in this misal and they use a generous amount of curry leaves and patal poha chiwda to make this misal. The kharvas and batata bhaji are really good. I liked them better than the misal. Next time i intend to try the shira and mango daal. It is very affordable. Overall a good thing to try.

Misal! Revered and loved all over Maharashtra and beyond, I had seen this everywhere but had never tried it until breakfast today. Vaidya Uphar Gruha Is the oldest Misal place in Pune, and has been serving it for over 100 years! Misal means mixture and it is! A delicious taste and textural mix of Usal, a curry made from moth beans, potato bhaji, curd, crispy sev, poha chivda all garnished with fresh onions, tomatoes and coriander. But the genius of the dish is the addition of the rassa, a hot thin spicy gravy which accompanies the misal in a bowl and is poured over the mixture. If that’s not enough for you it also comes with bread. This place is famous for its green rassa made with green chillies rather than the usual red and accompanied with a chai this was the perfect breakfast, probably the reason this place is still packed after 100 years!
