Sri Murugan Café is a long-time favourite, especially among my parents' generation who are now in their 60s. Last week, I had an early morning walking tour, and to my delight, I discovered that Murugan opens for breakfast by 6:30 AM—perfect timing for my 7:00 AM start. I ordered the Pongal, which was served piping hot, fresh off the stove, full of ghee, and truly delicious. I wrapped up with a cup of strong filter coffee that instantly transported me back more than a decade—to the old, humbler version of Murugan. Back then, it was a much smaller joint with just a handful of tables, located in an old Tamil house on the same street. I still remember the hungry cow that always lingered outside, hoping for vegetable scraps or nibbling at banana leaves left behind. Today, Sri Murugan Café is a much larger operation, with plenty of staff and a sparkling clean setup. While the newer space feels a bit generic in its look and layout, it still sits in the heart of Pondicherry’s Tamil Quarters—on the fascinating jewellery street of Kosakadai. There’s nothing quite like a hot serving of Pongal first thing in the morning from a place like Murugan. Their recipes feel like they come straight from a grandmother’s kitchen—comforting, time-tested, and full of heart. And for that, I keep going back.
