Masala Dosai in McDonalds!!!

No. No. No. No. No. McDonalds in India have not started serving Masala Dosais. Far from it! This post all about the 'Singapore' Komala's Restaurant in Chennai.

Last Sunday had been an intersting one for me. Forget about the need to go to Apollo hospital for something as small and silly as a foot sprain. But that gave me the opportunity to eat the quintessentially south indian dish of 'Masala' Dosai in a McDonalds style setting.

When we ordered out trademark dishes, I could not but feel that I am doing so in a McD rather than in an Indian fastfood with very South Indian name.

Here is how it goes. You walk up to the counter. Look up at the glowing menu on the back walls over the counter, and give your order.

 

 

You are given a bill. You the walk up to the serving counter, give the bill and you are then given a token with a number.
You wait for the number to be called out so that you can then collect your order.

 

 

The trays used for delivering food, the tables and chairs, even the dust bins remind me of McD!!!

 

 

 

 

 

Is Komalas really inspired by McD (and the sort) or is it that I am just nostalgic?
Either ways, I have more reasons to go to Komalas now! :-)
