What people say, in short
A long-standing South Indian eatery in Malleshwaram that locals frequently name among the city's classic breakfast and tiffin spots, often mentioned alongside CTR and Brahmins Coffee Bar. One local singles out its thatte idli. Some caution that the newer outlet's taste is average, and a few consider it overhyped.
