Mavalli Tiffin Room on Lal Bhag Main Road just cannot be missed! It is one of the oldest restaurants in Bangalore that resonates the intrinsic culture, let me not list its menu, it has most of what a South Indians would relish, so that speaks more for its cuisine than the menu will. They still hold on to that tradition and serve coffee and tea in silver tumblers! A glass to sip from and a small cup below to hold in the spills.

Koshy’s Restaurant
