    You made me very hungry now....

    Very nice...though I am a resident of Bangalore I do not have the recipes of these items. Thanks a lot for sharing.

    Also it would be very helpful if you could share the recipe of the mixed veges and groundnuts Kootu/sambar which is used in all Madhva functions.

    Also the recipe of the hotel sambar served alongwith dosas/idlis in Bangalore.
