Mission: Explore and conquer VFM eateries
Point of Conquest - CTR, Malleswaram
Raiders on mission - Mayank, Santosh, Suhas, Swapnil, Sameer, Sudhakar, Rahul
Overview of Ground Zero: CTR is a landmark in Malleswaram. Located opposite Malleswaram Playground it is famous for South Indian snacks like the usual Idli-Vada-Dosa-Sambar. But THESE guys make it special. The food here is made with passion and it shows.
The Conquest: 0800 hrs is an unfair, unearthly time to wake up any raider on a weekend for a mission. But apparently this was the best time to raid the place. I reached there well ahead of time to scout the area. The place was fairly empty except for a couple of tables being raided. Santosh reached soon after, followed by Suhas. Mayank was accompanied by Swapnil and later Sameer and Rahul also joined. By 0830, we couldn't get tables. Finally when we were seated, I was ready to eat the restaurant!! Butter Masala Dosa was the popular choice. A full round ordered. It was rich in butter and despite its tiny size this one can fill you fast. Must be the butter!! Demolished fast. We needed more. The second round saw a plate of Idly/Vada and a Poori and more Butter Masala Dosas. The bill came to Rs.60/- per head. waking up at 7:00 to drive to Malleswaram to eat a Masala Dosa at CTR- worth it.
