It's been a while since I posted on the blog. But I guess it was worth the wait. We ventured out to this small, not-so-visible hub called the Chikkanna Tiffen Room in cubbonpet. The place was camouflaged and trust me the chance of you accidentally discovering this place is as bleak as the chance of Virender Sehwag coming back into the Indian Cricket Team. This place is hardly big enough to fit in about 25 people at any given time inside (excluding employees) with limited seating on the side as seen in the pic on your left. This amazingly busy joint is open only between 7am to 10am or max 10:30am. So all you lazy bums, you need to really pull yourselves out of bed to be here.
The hot steaming mouth watering rice bath is best tasted between 7am to 7:45am else it will get cold and will loose its charm. Well moreover it is all sold out by 9:00 or 9:30am. They serve Idlys too but definitely not the best I've tasted. (so far..) Self served chutney container but the best part is that it is safely placed on the gas cylinder. A statutory warning to all those perfectionist mentality people: If you wanna taste something you have never tasted so far... You've to let go of such simple imperfections that you never thought would exist. :D. Next comes the irresistible and the best Dosa ever tasted so far. After a lot of build up and hype over the dosa in this Chikkanna Tiffen Room, it surely did not disappoint. The dosa even though filled with moist potato palya inside, (unlike the dry versions in most of the places), the dosa stays so crispy and the generous amount of pure desi ghee in the dosa keeps lingering in your mouth till the end of the day!!. By far the best dosa I've ever tasted thus far in my tasty days.
So there you have it guys, a must visit place in the wee hours of the day in Bangalore. Oh!! before I forget the route to get there :). It's on the way to Majestic bus stand and just after the town hall signal, take a sharp left at the next signal. Keep proceeding straight till you come to a karnataka flag pole with flower vendors. Take the next left after that pole and you will see the board. Chikkanna Tiffen Room.
