The plusses, it is located in a premium area and it has got an AC section as well. The downers, the food is very cheap, price wise and quality wise, and hygiene is an issue. This place basically caters to the low socio economic class segment, and draws denizens accordingly.

The ambiance is non existent, and the open view kitchen confirms all doubts of poor sanitation. Although the perfunctory head cap is seen, but thats just about it. The dosa maker does not wear any, the hand gloves are not seen anywhere, there are food droppings everywhere and the proper washing and cleaning of used utensils is a grave question mark. The container for spoons is conspicuous by the absence of expected boiling hot water within.
The medu wadas are prepared in the morning not only for the entire day, but also kept open on the shelf, much like some kind of toffees, to be dispensed as and when the call for it comes in. You have people walking in and actually touching them to assess if they are hot enough for their consumption. The sambar and the chutney containers are perennially kept open for dipping into, whenever.
I called for an Onion Pesarrattu Dosa and one Onion bonda.
To be fair, the dosa was good. Made out of gram flour, it was rightly spongy and sprinkled with a generous dose of onion slivers, green chilly bits, gunpowder and red chilly powder. The onion bonda was deep fried and freshly made, but I had a guilt complex with every bite.
The verdict: Strictly avoidable.
