One of my favourite restaurants is the Central Tiffin Room, located at Malleswaram 7th Cross, Sampige Road in Bangalore. Now though, for the past many years, it has been known by the name Sri Sagar. It is a very old restaurant, presumably at least 50-70 years old. The place is crowded, especially in the evenings. At about 6-6:30pm, the crowd starts to swell and it is usually difficult to get a place to sit at that time. The restaurant closes quite early, at about 9-9:30pm.
The menu caters exclusively to the South Indian palate. Vegetarian fast-food, to be precise. The restaurant offers everything from idlis, masala dosas, pooris, bajjis, plain dosas, etc. A hot favourite is the butter masala dosa, more popularly known as 'benne masala dosa'. It comes with the regular coconut chutney & pudina chutney. The dosa, golden brown in colour, is very satisfying and followed by a hot cup of coffee, makes for a very good meal.
Another favourite is the Mangalore bajji (the 'goli' bajji). Both the dishes are best consumed hot. The dosa is quite reasonably priced at about Rs.18, and the bajji is priced at about Rs.10 a plate. People would be well advised to try out some eatables there.

Hello saar,
I saw a write-up on the dosa, similar to what you'd written. Let me see, if I can find it..
Cheers!
