This welcoming cafe run by an extroverted escapee from the marketing business in Ahmedabad does fabulous pure-veg breakfast/brunches that are the perfect finish to a morning safari. Real filter coffee or homemade lemonade, fresh and dried fruit, porridge, and lentil pancakes with salad or mashed potatoes typically find their way to your plate. Bookings the previous day advisable.
Indian and Western snacks and light dishes are available all day – and Malaya is also an excellent crafts and souvenir shop: owner Neelam spends two months every year driving around India picking up some rare and individual artisan products.
