An year ago, I tried a 5-6 of his recommendations after watching the videos and was mostly underwhelmed from what I ate. Did not find the restaurants worth the time, money and energy that I spent to go and eat food at the reviewed establishment. That YT fellow enamors the audience with his impeccable vocabulary and expressions of tasting food. Every dish is very tasty in his opinion but that is not the case in reality, unfortunately. |

I am from North Karnataka (Dharwad) but never got to enjoy such rotis - ever. Not even our grandmothers (who were excellent in cooking) were able to make such rotis (or Jwalada rottis / bhakri as we call them) |

In my opinion, it is one of the most overrated places in Bangalore. |

Ironic, as the dosa was arguably the most underwhelming thing I ate there. |

So this whole argument about the best Dose is not something I would go with. You cant compare them, but rather just maintain a Dose hall of fame which many restaurants can be a part of. |

And now it is the MLTR closely followed by NMH where I like it the best. |

What do MLTR and NMH stand for? |

Both are old fmaous restaurants in Basavanagudi - Maha Lakshmi Tiffin Room and New Modern Hotel. Vidyarthi Bhavan - more than the Dosae it's about the servers coming with 7-8 plates in a hand. I've never come across someone saying VB dosae "tastes" good. I don't understand this "best dosae in Bengaluru" competition. This is like Best husband/wife in the world kind of statements :D Same for Idly...SLV (BSK 2nd stage) vs Brahmin's coffee bar invokes heated discussions. Although I prefer the SLV version, I'd happily visit the Brahmin's coffee bar. |

Unfortunately too many hotels churning out only chutneys and no sambar at all. Any recommendations? |

For best 'sambar' you don't have to look far, just opposite Dwarka, there is the awesome Trupthi (I hope I recall the name right). Everything is great there. Upahara Darshini 'sambar' is also good |

Hands down, the best sambar for the idly in the town is at 'SN Refreshments', JP Nagar. One of the fieriest(heat) and unique sambar in B'lore. I have NOT seen anything remotely close, in any of the other restaurants in the town. :loveit |

I beg to differ :). SN is famous for idli and chutney. 'Sambar' you have to ask specifically. |

I don't understand the reason of making the sambar in Karnataka sweet, it really makes the otherwise tasty idli dosa quite tasteless |

Already bored of Trupthi. UD sambar is good but nowadays I feel the hygiene of the place and their utensils has gone down. Bored as well since I have been visiting the place since 3 decades |
