Madras Masala

Masala Dosa

A landmark version — wafer-thin, audibly crisp, with a spiced potato-onion filling that's warm, fragrant, and not overly starchy; served with sambar and multiple chutneys

Idli Sambar

Properly steamed rice cakes with a spongy, cloud-like texture served with a rich, tamarind-forward sambar and coconut chutney

Medu Vada

Crispy-edged lentil donuts with a soft interior, ideal for dunking in sambar; the texture balance here is noticeably better than average

Uttapam

Thick, slightly sour rice pancake topped with onions, tomatoes, and green chilies — a heartier alternative to the dosa for those who prefer more substance

Rasam

Thin, peppery tamarind broth with a fiery back-of-the-throat warmth — ordered separately, it doubles as a digestive and a palate cleanser

Filter Coffee

Served in the traditional South Indian davara-tumbler set, brewed strong with chicory and poured from height for froth — the real thing
