“ A happy revisiting customer for their Ragi Ambli and Kuchhakki Ganji, I'm also a fan of their Kadubu and Neer Dose. But today, i had the chance to try two of their other dishes. Corn Rotti and Jackfruit Dose! Corn Rotti - 9/10. (Rotti was amazing. We used to make corn rotti at home, so this had the same flavours. They could include another Chutney accompaniment for rotti, one with stronger flavours. They gave the same one as they give with Dose. Tomato Gojju that came with it was fantastic) Jackfruit Dose - 7.5/10. Good flavour of the Jackfruit. Rightly gentle in essence and did not bring a lot of its sweetness along with it, so that was very good. But due to jackfruit's nature possibly, it was a sticky dose. Texture felt like Khale dose on the outside, but slightly on the sticky side within. He had roasted it well, as much as it can be done, but still had moisture content in the core of the Dose. Would love to try them again! I wish they publish a weekly menu since their rottis and special dose's keep changing. Keep it up!! ”
