lunch at madhappa's mess

By Rachna Srinivas

Finding Mudde Madhappa Mess on an empty stomach,at midday ,was quite a tricky search for me but it's not the same case for the hundreds of people who visit the place for a hearty meal, every afternoon. The mess hall, located in Gandhinagar, is a go-to lunch spot for many people working around that area.
One visit to the hotel will answer all our questions about why it's such a popular place. Firstly, you'll immediately take notice of the homely vibe and the friendly nature of the waiters and staff. Their pleasant ways might leave you feeling like you just visited a long lost relative's home for lunch.

Secondly and most importantly, the mess is one of the very few places in Bangalore that serves authentic South Karnataka food. Their meal consists of ragi mudde, saaru, palya and rice. Other sides like masala vada and papad also constitute the meal. The solid spread is loved for its distinctive flavour and original taste.
​
Karnataka food may not be as popular as its counterparts from Andhra and Tamil Nadu, but the essence of its cuisine lies in its nutritional content rather than the taste. Ragi is said to have high quantities of calcium and dietary fibre. All the other ingredients of the meal too are protein rich and brimming with nutrients. This is another reason for all the health freaks and nutrition lovers to end up in Mudde Madhappa Mess on sunny afternoons.

Lastly, the sizable quantity of food is served at a reasonable price,making it all the more convenient for people who eat there on a daily basis. Some loyal customers have been regulars of the hotel for decades now. This old place with its nourishing food is a must-try for all the food lovers in the city. Exceptional taste, satisfying quantities and nominal prices make Mudde Madhappa Mess a favourite among bangaloreans.
