Thamarai
7 people recommendvia r/lucknow·8 comments quoted below
What people say, in short
Thamarai is repeatedly recommended for South Indian food, with commenters comparing it favourably to Kokkam. One praises the setting and value, and another recommends its mostly vegetarian food. A diner who otherwise enjoyed the meal found too much ghee in the dosai, but explicitly allowed that it might have been a one-off. That caveat is not evidence of a general problem with the dish.
