Hang on! 9*11 is supposed to be read as 9 into 11[9x11 = 99].. Not 9-11. I wanted to warn you before u start breaking your heads to relate between a South Indian Dish "Dosa" and most horrendous terrorist attack of last decade.
Being Born and raised in typical South Indian "Brahmin" hard core vegetarian family, my cravings for ghee, butter , rice , curd , pickle are super eternal.. Just cant get rid of it i say.. and my futile trials of 6-packing starts off inadvertently if i happen to look at my budding tummy ;) . Having said that, I was not a great fan of eating road-side food! I am a guy who shows-off saying Its "Unhygenic".
Coming to Dosa, I always thought there were only 2 places where dosas were ultimate in Bengaluru.. Vidyarthi Bhavan in Gandhi Bazaar and CTR in Malleshwaram.Little did i know that my belief would be proven false!! But On one " auspicious day "[Sorry I dont remember the date. .] my roomie bubly took me to a road-side dosa shop located in heart of koramangala also called "Aunty Dosa shop". He gave a description saying there were 99 Varieties of dosas available there.. To be honest , i was like , wat crap because my life was contented with dosas like MasalaDosa, Podi Dosa, Set Dosa, , Ragi Dosa, Rava Dosa, etc etc..
What made me see stars/universe like Yashodha saw in Kiddo Krishna's mouth was the way the owner of the shop , a lady started telling the Dosa varieties their menu comprised off! I was like "ha-theri".. The name of dosas she kept telling was like a sanskrit verse chanting by a priest in a temple for me!! Awestruck..Panner Dosa, Cheese Dosa, Mysore masala, Babycorn Dosa, Noodles dosa,Chilli Dosa .... U name it ! Here is the snapshot of the menu card i took .
Well describing the dosas, the batter they use, tawas they use are quite peculiar or atleast i havent seen like those. Reason might be also, that the darshinis in blore we go have that big rectangular tawas!. Batter they use for all dosas are same. but wat they stuff in dosas makes the dosa of its type .. Best part is they serve too hot dosas !! Wow.. One can carry even a burnol with them for safety ;)
Having so many varieties of dosa including Pav-Bhaji dosa, is the reason why this place is such a crowded place. I can see lot of North Indian people too ordering dosas., What puts a big grin on my face is wen they order a dosa, "Aunty Ek masala dosa " not masala dhosa as we south indians say it.. Anyhow south indians are fond of idli-dosas.. So they just unite india in one place which most of the hotels fail to do.. They have a token system too on weekends or on any day if the no of customers are too many.
After visiting the place recurrently , whenever my cook takes an off , I was more curious about the details how and when it started off, Then tried asking the owner about the history of the place.. she could take hardly two minutes of her time and tell that it started off about 4 years ago and also they have the same menu from 4 years ! But she was upset that there are more than 99 duplicate dosa shops named 99 varieties of dosa in blore alone. Sad part is they have a duplicate shop just 100 mts away ! Which lures people with a digital display , LED lights .Well i think duplicating is something very rampant and u can do nothing abt it unless they Patent their shop name. !!
But I dont recommend this place to people who count calories(1,2,3......n) in the food . Sorry guys,lot of cheese, butter, gheee, aloo,. Everything u hate to be in food will be present there.. However no harm in trying and starving for next 2 days ;).
Well if u wanna hog some dosas , then please do visit this place. Timings not sure.. Generally Evenings.. I would be more than glad if you call me too :P
Location : Diagonally Opposite bajaj showroom, Ganesha temple road , 8th block Kormangala Near to Police station Koramangala.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Not the fake dosa shop right in front of bajaj showroom which has a digital display of list of dosas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
