UNAVU - Tamil Street Food

Kothu Parotta

Shredded flaky parotta stir-fried on a flat iron with egg, curry, and aromatics — the rhythmic chopping is half the experience, and the result is crispy-edged with deeply savoury gravy running through every bite

Parotta with Salna

Layered, pull-apart flatbread served with a thin, peppery Tamil-style curry that soaks into the layers without making them soggy

Idli Vada Combo

Steamed rice cakes alongside crispy lentil fritters, served with sambar and chutneys — the breakfast benchmark that tells you everything about a Tamil kitchen's fundamentals

Filter Coffee

South Indian-style coffee brewed through a metal filter and served in the traditional tumbler-and-davara set, strong and slightly chicory-bitter with frothed milk

Chettinad Chicken Curry

Bold, dark curry from the Chettinad region with whole spices, kalpasi, and marathi mokku giving it a complexity you won't find in generic South Indian spots

Dosa (various)

Thin, fermented rice-and-lentil crepe with the characteristic sour tang — served plain or stuffed, with sambar and coconut chutney on the side
