Huge entrance that has board which is clearly having the name ‘THE FILTER COFFEE’ written on it.
-
There is black-board that tells about the days specialities.
-
A unique section to the left side which looks similar to open kitchen. There are tava(s) for making dosas, idlies being made, bonda and other items. Around this is the seating section. You need to take the coupon at the counter and then sit. They would then serve it directly across the table from the open kitchen. The feeling is quite wonderful coz it gives a feel like you are at you home and there is someone cooking. It might feel a bit warm but then the experience is wonderful.
-
There is also a section where they have service. Again each of the tables are quickly attended to.
-
There is banana leaf that is put in front of you on which chutneys and the food items are served.
-
If you ask for separate sambars, they are not served in cups but in palm-leaf cups which is very much bio-degradable.
-
There overall feel is quite good about this place coz it also looks quite clean.
This is another very good dosa. Not the usual triangle shape but something that we can do at home. Just put the masala and roll it over.
The taste is pretty good, surely not that oily and the potato curry was nice. Dosa tasted good with the chutneys as well.
Another wonderful item where the onion is stuffed on top of the dosa. The taste was again superb with sambar and chutneys.
This is the traditional favourite in Tamil Nadu.
Infact, it also happens to be one of my favourite. The parota/naan piece gets to be beaten on the tava to break into # of pieces.
And then mixed with some kurma and onions. In TYC, they serve the kurma also separately so you can enjoy with more kurma if needed. You can surely ask for more if needed.
A very well done bonda which tasted quite good. I could not see much oil coming out of it. It tasted good with the chutneys.
They have separate listing of single cup coffee and the by-two version. It is better to take the by-two version of it. The coffee is pretty different compared to other places coz it was on the sweeter side. Not like at many place where there is limited sugar.
One thing I did not like is that some items that were listed in the menu was not there. But I can understand that coz the place is so popular that it might become hard to predict the quantities of batter. Also another issue I found was with the Chilly Bhajji,
I thought oil was more and the chilly were extra spicy.
