The original and still the best local rotti shop. It also makes kotthu (rotti chopped up and mixed with vegies) and delicious, more substantial rice-and-curry-style dishes. The ever-smiling chef and owner also offers cooking classes (Rs 2000 for six curries). It's 350m north of the coastal highway.
