This SG Palya tea stall is a hot spot for college kids, corporate employees and regular neighbourhood folk, drawing in sizeable crowds before and after college hours for a piping hot glass of chai or filter coffee. Pair it with classic Kerala snacks like pazham pori {banana fritters} and you’ve got your midday snack break sorted. Malabar Cafe is always buzzing with patrons who religiously make a stop here every day. Winning for its old-school chai shop vibe and its minimalist set {there are only two small tables inside}, have yourself a hot cuppa and a snack for just INR 20. And give their Sulaimani Tea a try too.
