World cuisineLocals' pick

One of the first dosa kitchens in Karama, Woodlands has kept the same Udupi vegetarian menu for over 40 years. Frying Pan Adventures says the sambar, ground fresh and home-style, is what seals the deal.

Good to know

  • Order the four-foot paper roast dosa and ask for the masala potato on the side so the crepe stays crisp.
  • Finish the way regulars do: a small steel tumbler of filter coffee.
  • A What's On writer who grew up eating here orders the puri or butter sada dosa with the red coconut chutney.
