Though i started noticing that the southies in Canada love onion rava masala dosa with porippu podi....dunno why, it makes it so messy and doesn't really add to the flavor.

speedheat Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I prefer sambar with idli, don't like having it with chutney. Idili soaked in sambar is my favorite breakfast. Gollum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Dosa for me, original mysore dosa especially yummy Gollum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariyam Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 (edited) @Gollum I quite like Idli. In fact, I am quite a fan of South Indian culture/cuisine. Everything about that part of India is good, except for CSK. Edited March 30, 2019 by Mariyam Gollum and Laaloo 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lannister Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Try Habe Vade. But don't think you will get these in the hotels. There's so much more to Karnataka food than what you see in the hotels. Gollum and Stan AF 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dosa is #1, but I definitely love idlis especially when I don't feel like eating oily stuff. I used to much down a plate of idli-vada-sambar (to pass the time while dosa is getting ready) and a plain dosa for breakfast. Aw man, what days! Karnataka Sambar is brill, but the Chennai-style Sambar mom makes at home along with idli and ghee Gollum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laaloo Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 More of a fan of dosa than idli or probably because i really need to go to a authentic restaurant for proper idli. Gollum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are in Bengaluru, there is Brahmins coffee bar in Basavangudi which offers the best coconut chutney. That idli-chutney combo is simply awesome. Also, there is Raghavendra stores & Veena stores in Malleshwaram which is worth trying. Gollum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me, in the unpopular opinions thread 4 hours ago, Muloghonto said: (though Rajma is exempted but then again, Rajma is not really daal and a very good dal tarka is a distant clear-cut second to sambhaar, tied for 2nd with Bong style cholaar-daal). Yeah I'll make an exception for Dal Makhani too. 4 hours ago, Muloghonto said: But the desi Sambhar is where its at, because it also has veggies in it. Most Sambhar i tried in North America- a few of them can replicate the Sambhar taste very well but only have a couple of pieces of carrots in them, thats it. In my experience the Tamil version of Sambhar is thick and has plenty of veggies. flamy and Muloghonto 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't tried Raghavendra stores but often go to Veena which is nearby. Only problem is there is no seating arrangement there, have to eat standing by the side of the road. Their Vada-Chutney, Puliyogre, Bisibele Bath and Khara Pongal are outstanding. Malleshwaram is heaven for foodies, so many legendary outlets spread in a small area. My only issue is I don't like the Sambhar the Kannadigas prepare. The best Sambhar in that area is between 7th and 8th cross, a place called Iyer Mess but they do only meals and not South Indian tiffin, and not all days have Sambhar. Have to try the A2B nearby for my preferred style of tiffin. Are you Tamil, Kannadiga or Northie? Based in Bengaluru? Turning_track 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
