I tried their famous Ghee Podi Idly, Wheat Halwa, and Tea. The Ghee Podi Idly didn’t feel special to me—I’ve had much better ones elsewhere. However, the side chutney they serve with it is extremely tasty. The tea was just average. I also ordered the Wheat Halwa, but for ₹130, it felt like a waste of money. Overall, I found the food to be just average. However, I did buy the Madurai Motta Mixture for ₹130, and it tasted quite . The customer service was nice, which was a plus!
