Its a no nonsense place. Give your order, food will arrive even before you finish that glass of water and then it just keeps coming. The best way to start your lunch is; order rassam wada - piping hot and soft, coin idlis - small ones with ghee and masala sprinkled on them (don't forget to order gun powder), idiyappam with coconut stew and bissi bele bhat.
If you are tired of going to the same old Madras and Mysore Cafe, this place will be a good change.
