With dining out becoming increasingly expensive, even a simple meal can strain one’s budget. However, a recent post by a woman about the affordable prices at a South Indian restaurant in Bengaluru has caught everyone’s attention. A user taking to X (formerly Twitter) shared a photo of the restaurant’s menu and compared it to the well-known Rameshwaram Cafe in Bengaluru, famous for its South Indian cuisine.

The user revealed that the restaurant’s name is Taaza Thindi, located in Bengaluru’s Jayanagar. According to the menu shared in the post, the prices were impressively low, with a single idli and vada costing just Rs 10 and a masala dosa priced at Rs 20. Not only this, other South Indian delicacies such as Kesari Bhat, Kharabhath and Chow Chow Bhath were also offered at similarly affordable prices.

The caption accompanying the photo read, “What in the Rameshwaram are these prices. Taaza Thindi.”

Since being posted online, the post has garnered significant attention, sparking a flurry from the users in the comment section.

One user commented, “You guys are so lucky the prices are insane. In goa, we get overpriced South Indian food in so-called new-age QSR outlets. Dosa is ₹120-₹150 and tastes like crap.”

Another nostalgically chimed in with, “Wow! This what I used to pay 15 years back in Mumbai. Wish they came with this pricing or even marginally higher in Mumbai.”

A person expressed, “Best thing about Bangalore is you don’t have to depend on branded establishments for food. You walk into any restaurant and the breakfast will be hygienic and incredible.”

Someone added, “This is dirt cheap, in NCR normal restaurants like Haldirams sell Masala dosa for approx 250.”

A surprised user shared, “Kahi ye koi sapna toh nahi, ya phir koi dusri currency ke prices toh nahi. Itni kam prices me toh metro cities me sambar ka katora tak na mile bhai (Is this a dream or are these prices listed in some other currency? In metro cities, you wouldn’t even get a bowl of sambar for such low prices).”

Meanwhile, an individual sharing their experience, wrote, “We have regular customers Taaza Tindi Banashankari for 8 years. Have also visited the Jayanagar branch. Really love their tasty and hygienic food. They also run Arogya Ahara in JP Nagar. I always wonder why it hasn’t garnered popularity like Rameshwaram Cafe. Deserves more recognition.”
