Cafe Madras

Rest : Cafe Madras
Location : Dadar - Matunga
Meal : Dinner
Company : Loki

Ambience : Cafe Madras is a very very basic eatery. Small, on two levels and harkens back to a time when the city was probably full of places like this.

Meal : The menu is south indian and interesting however some of the items you know nothing about since the names are things we have never heard (Neer, Ungdu etc) Anyway we got the vada sambar (good) the madras dahi misal (excellent) the onion rava (below average) the set dosas (two pancake like dal-flour dosa with masala in the middle, very different and good) many other options with uttapams and rice which ill try out if im ever back.

The filter coffee was the drink to have. in that heat too i had like 3 cups. Fantastic.

There was a 20 min wait on account of it being Sunday. beware its very basic no A/c no fancy stuff. eat and get out though the staff is pretty friendly.

Food : 8/10 Service 8/10
Damage : 180($4.50)

I ask for the onion rava to be crisp at CM, it is usually good! rasa vada is another dish to try and then finish off with filter coffee!! Aah! waiting for my next trip back home....

If you do go back, try the Mysore Sada Dosa w/butter.
