When it comes to the Benne Masala Dosa, all roads lead to CTR - Shri Sagar or Central Tiffin Room in Bengaluru. The city’s love for this butter drenched dose goes back a few decades when the present owners took charge of this 70-year old establishment that served as the only eatery in the historic Malleswaram area.

Food Lovers’ editor, Kripal Amanna catches up with Sandesh Pujari, third generation owner of this landmark eatery and explores what makes the benne dose special, before indulging in a tiffin treat that includes not just their most loved offering, but other equally popular snacks like the Mangalore bajji, Maddur Vade and more. Enjoy!

Rava Idli
The soft rava idli makes for a wholesome, comforting tiffin, bathe it in the kai (coconut) chutney or savour it with the vegetable sagu that is packed with nutrition and flavour.
Rs. 29 (usd 0.4)
8.5/10

Goli Bajji
Scrumptious with a bit of a stretchy pull on the bite, and served steaming hot, the goli bajji is a must-have when you are at CTR for an evening snack. Relish it just by itself, with its slight hint of sweetness, or dunk it into the chutney to make for a spirited mouthful.
Rs. 35 (usd 0.5)
9/10

Maddur Vade
This vade has the texture of a scrumptiously flakey cookie. On the palate, one tastes the deep savoury notes of the fried onion. Relish it while at CTR, or also carry some home, it makes for a great snack on the go
Rs. 29 (usd 0.4)
8/10

Ordinary Masala Dosa
The dose is roasted kadak (crisp), and smeared with a generous amount of kempu (red) coconut chutney inside that lends a tinge of heat. The creamy masale, potato palya, barely whispers its flavours, but lends a great supporting act to the dose that takes centerstage with every bite.
Rs. 52 (usd 0.7)
8.5/10

Benne Masala Dosa
This butter-drenched gold-hued dose is blessed with the perfect gentle crackle. On the palate, one tastes the lushness of the homemade butter that envelopes every bite of the dose, the palya and the chutney with its delicious veil. If you need one reason to visit CTR, this would be it.
Rs. 57 (usd 0.8)
10/10

Kesari Bath
Dripping in ghee and topped with toasted cashews and raisins, the grainy kesari bath almost melts away when placed in the mouth. The cashew provides an element of nuttiness and the raisin, pops of sweetness to this semolina preparation.
Rs. 29 (usd 0.4)
9/10

Coffee
A fitting end to a meal here.
Rs. 15 (usd 0.2)
8/10
