Tips from diners
Start here if you're trying dosa for the first time. This is the classic preparation.
Crispy on the outside with a warm, spiced potato interior. Sri Ananda Bahwan makes these fresh. Good as a starter or snack.

Order samosa early in service when they're hot and crispy.
Fluffy, pillowy idli served with sambar and chutney. Sri Ananda Bahwan's version is light and delicate. Good for breakfast or as a softer alternative to dosa.

Order idli in the early hours when they're freshly steamed. Best eaten warm.
A mild, vegetable-forward curry that appears on the thali. The vegetables are tender and the spices are balanced without overwhelming heat. Good for those seeking lighter flavor.
Tips from diners
Pair this with dosa to balance the richness of the crepe.
