For those new to the city, especially those living in South Bangalore, your go-to budget South Indian breakfast spot is undoubtedly Taaza Thindi. Located in the bustling Jayanagar 4th Block, Taaza Thindi attracts endless crowds with its affordable and flavorful South Indian menu. If you're serious about your masala dosa, idlis, and filter coffee, this should be your first stop.
Styled like a modern darshini, self-service is the name of the game here. You grab a ticket at the counter and collect your food at the live stations. Start with a plate of idli-vada, priced at INR 24. The soft, melt-in-your-mouth idlis are doused in a mild coconut chutney, making them some of the best in town. The crispy vada complements the idlis perfectly, with its light crunch.
The masala dosa, priced at INR 35, takes a little time to arrive, but it’s well worth the wait. The dark-brown dosa is glossy with generous ghee and, although smaller than other dosas, is quite filling. Follow it up with a plate of Chow Chow Bath for INR 25, served with a dollop of gooey, sweet Kesari Bath, studded with dry fruits and bits of pineapple. And of course, no breakfast is complete without a classic cup of filter coffee, priced at INR 12.
