Watching those videos of foodies down south with ghee laden dosas, molaga podi idli, Kesari Bhaath with pineapple pieces and steaming authentic filter kaapi gets you drooling? Then this new place in the lanes of Koregaon Park is only for you!
Make sure you hurry up to Koregaon Park for the newly launched Gatti Chutney for Bengaluru style authentic dosas & fresh filter kaapi. Dosas that are crisp on the outside, soft inside and gleaming with desi ghee splashed on it while roasting it to a perfect brown; that’s how their signature dish is!
Apart from these shiny dosas that we are raving about, the staple Khara Bhaath (Upma), Thatte Idli, Podi Idli and Kesari Bhaath are equally heavenly. No dish served here has even the slightest amount of food color, soda or maida which makes it totally healthy to consume even on a daily basis.
Podi used in the recipes at Gatti Chutney is quite unique with the grainy texture and a hint of sweetness which we feel comes from the jaggery they use. Also, all dishes are cooked or finished with desi ghee giving you that satiating feeling with every bite.
Kesari Bhaath which is essentially your pineapple Sheera that you get here is kind of a mandate, be it any meal. Minimal sweetness, rich aroma of sooji roasted in ghee and pieces of pineapple in every bite makes it a must. Looks indulgent but very light on stomach.
Idlis are soft and pillowy; and when that podi along with ghee is applied on a hot idli, you end up finishing it within a minute. It’s a challenge we are up for any day. Do not go by the size of that Thatte Idli, it’s very light to eat, very much like the Kesari Bhaath.
Among the dosa menu, we highly recommend their Ghee Garlic Roast Dosa, Multigrain Ghee Dosa and Podi Dosa. But not trying their other dosas is not really an option, you must make multiple trips to Gatti Chutney. The dosas may vary but the chutneys are constant i.e. green chutney and tomato chutney.
Ending such a meal with a nice glass of filter kaapi is a ritual and you too can’t really break that here. The Filter kaapi packs the final punch before you head out for the rest of the day.
