With limited food options on the menu, the restaurant believes in serving authentic and delicious South Indian food like dose, khara bath, idli and many more. There is no customisation of food; the idea is to keep it simple and tasty. The concept is to show that less is more. As I mentioned earlier in the post, try out the masala dose, as it was amazing.

The food served at the restaurant is very economical. Bangalore is one of the expensive cities in India and these prices at the restaurant reminded us of the 1990s. They have a pocket friendly items and is perfect for all kinds of people. Each item ranges between Rupees 10 to 20. Even though the prices are so affordable, the items are not compromised on quality and hygiene.

With glass windows, you can see how the food is prepared. Many modern machines and technology is used to prepare the food and wash the utensils. They have chutney making machines and dish washers that take care of hygiene. Also, these build trust and confidence among their customers.
Bonus reason – Because the restaurant is very clean
I have already mentioned multiple times that the restaurant maintains utmost hygiene. With appropriate steps and precautions of using the dishwasher and hot water, the utensils used are very clean.
