The place was not busy (surprisingly) when I walked in around lunch time. The spread on the counter of curries and fried items seemed very limited and in tiny containers. Ordered a Masala Dosa and Veg Kottu Roti. My go to dishes in a Sri Lankan restaurant. The fact that no other customers came in was worrisome to me that did I make a good choice by coming here. The Masala Dosa comes in a container sliced in two rather than the entire wrapped in foil at one of nearby place (our favourite). The Dosa (crepe) much thicker than it should be make it too doughy and filling not flavoured enough. The accompanying sambhar was nothing great as well. The chutney too thin and watery but was surprisingly much better. It hit the right notes on flavour, spiciness and salt. The Kottu Roti was cooked with minimal veggies and much spicier than I anticipated. I was fine, but the Mrs not so much. And this was asking it to be mild. Need to try the HOT when I am all alone. The redeeming factor was that it contained Nutrella pieces (Indian continent soy pieces). The quantity was disappointing as well. $8.50 for a Masala Dosa (similar price to a sit down restaurant and much better quality or several $s expensive than the one sold at a nearby Sri Lankan place) and $7 for Kottu Roti – same as Masala Dosa. Now I know why there were not many people during lunch!
I actually stumbled upon Anantha Bhavan, I didn’t plan to go there. The M&M meat shop happened to be right next to it, so I had to check this place out. The first I tried there were the rolls. They had the mutton roll, chicken roll and veggie roll. I fell in love with all of them. It tasted so good and at a reasonable price too. Since then I have been coming to this place whenever I wanted a snack.On my second visit, one of the cashiers recommended me to try mutton kotu and masala dosa. I’ve never tried mutton kotu before, so I thought of giving it a shot. It’s a combination of roti and mutton scrambled together and my my my it was good. It was spicy but the flavour just explodes in your mouth.The dosa, on the other hand, wasn’t that great for the price I paid.Timings on google dont match with their open hours. They tend to open late.
