History in Action: Vidyarthi Bhavan

Some might rate it below 2 or some may rate it above 4, but I feel honored to rate this place. This place itself is a historical landmark in Basavanagudi. Whenever I enter this restaurant even after waiting for 40 mins I feel happy to experience the history. This restaurant is part many novels of great authors that Karnataka ever found (like Nisar Ahmed, UR Ananth Murthi, etc)

Even after many decades it has still preserved its old ambiance. It might be the stone tables, old fashion wooden long chairs, servers in Mangalore Lungi (generally called as "Maani"), author's wall frames or serving plate. You might have to share your table with strangers and may involve in their talk, that's the real fun of this place.

About Dosa: its completely different kind of Dosa, thick but still crispier, taste of elachi deep inside, free flow chutney and lot of oil ofcourse. It tastes heavenly and hardly anyone can settle for just one. I usually have 2-3 dosas. 
They also offer kesari bath which will be good, poori sagu which is also good and idli vada. Coffee is average only.

Pricing is descent, will be usually crowded on weekdays and over crowded on week ends.

Just visit there to taste a great dosa and for the experience of history in action ;)
