Café Madras Mumbai
Mumbai, India
The read// why locals go
Cafe Madras has fed Matunga South Indian food since 1940, in the district that still holds Mumbai's strongest concentration of it. Steamed rice cakes, thin crisp pancakes off the griddle and filter coffee poured between two metal tumblers make up the core of it, cooked to a standard that keeps the Tamil families of the neighbourhood coming back across generations. The menu is vegetarian throughout and the kitchen will work around an allergy if you flag it when ordering. Plates come in at around INR 180, which is the other reason the tables never stay empty for long.
