NAMMA IDLY SHOP ULSOOR

Being a fan of idlis (and doesn’t matter how it is spelt as long as it tastes good) , I am always on the lookout for good idli joints to try out. I have passed by Namma idly shop several times with the intention of trying the place out but never got around to it…until this month when, coincidently, a group of Idli This is located near ulsoor lake, opposite shanthi sagar. We met real early and the air was crisp and cool..just right for a plate of steamy idlis, piping hot sambar, two styles of watery chutneys – coconut and red chutney and crispy vadas and this is exactly what I got – the place did not disappoint. This is a strictly stand and eat darshini style place so if you are looking for seating arrangements you won’t find it. I started with a plate of idli and vadas and the mentioned accompaniments. The food is more tamil nadu style so the idlis weren’t the fluffy variety but soft all the same. This, in itself, was quite filling for me so I couldn’t really experiment with any other food. I ordered another extra vada amidst a really packed crowd out of which most were from our group. The rest of the members of the group tucked in variety of dosas, paddu, pongal, rice bath, and there is even a little tea joint next to it to round off thebreakfast with a cup of steaming tea. Most of the items were quite reasonably priced and won’t dent your wallet. The place seemed clean. Service was real quick given the pressure they were under catering to so many people at once. I do wish I had the stomach space to try out the paddu which looked absolutely delicious but that’s for another day. If you are around the area, and craving south Indian breakfast, then do give this place a try. For me as I often mention in my reviews, the benchmark of any good place is whether I would revisit and where Namma Idly Shop stands, I definitely would and would love to try out the other items on the menu. Overall rating: 4/5 Ratings for reviews 1-No! No! No! 2-Just about average 3- Good. Can give it a try 4-Great!! 5-Yes! Yes! Yes! and I’ll tell all about it.
