Garden Cafe Hazra

The famous south Indian cafe,garden cafe reached a milestone in their culinary journey as they'll turn 50 on this 15th of August. They have quite a variety in their menu especially 89 type of dosa variations.The Tiranga dosa was medium spicy and the sides or condiments added the extra explosion of flavours with every bite of the dosa. The finger fried idly was the speciality of this place.Beside these I love cheese dosa The food and the staffs are well behaved and quick at their service.

It has been ages I didn't try a sumptuous South Indian meal until I landed here. Garden cafe completes its 50 years and probably I came here at the best time. It is located in Hazra, opposite to the lane of Paramount Nursing home. If we talk about the interiors, it has a very good seating arrangement, appropriate lighting and a hygenic kitchen. Service is impeccably good. I found the manager and his staffs pretty humble. This cafe has 89 varities of Dosa which every vegetarian and South Indian food lovers must try. I tried their hot coffee which is generally known as Filter Kaapi or Kaapi Nirvana and it was quite rejuvenating. With that, complimented mixed uttapam and babycorn uttapam. The taste was unmatched and the latter one os highly recommended. With cold coffee, I tried their Dahi vada, Masala Vada and Sada Vada. These were absolutely flawless and delectable hence these are "MUST TRY". What stood out actually was, the finger fried idly. At a glance, you may assume it as potato wedges, but it is idly, cut into wedges and deep fried in such a manner that the look seems more like a potato. Amazing? Well it tastes heavenly good. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Cheese idly was one of my favourites. Idlies, slightly fried and garnished with cheese grabbed my heart instantly. Brownie points for the sambhar dip. 😍 I tried their special dosas like, Tiranga Dosa, Topi Dosa and Salad Dosa. These didn't only taste good but the look itself satiated our hunger. These dosas complimented well with mango blossom and orange blossom. Finally, I ended my brunch with the diva of all... Cheese mushroom pizza and mixed cheese pizza. Both were cheesy and had enough of veggies and condiments to fulfill our hunger pangs. These complimented well with their in-house chips called, Jiggis chips. ☺ So vegetarians and suckers of South Indian cuisines! Garden cafe has all the amenities to serve you well hence, please give'em a visit. I'm sure, you'll be delighted.
