Sagar Ratna

Housed within the grandiose Ashok hotel, this branch of venerable South Indian restaurant Sagar Ratna is considered the best of all the locations around town. It's often buzzing with families and couples, and does a great line in dosas, idlis (spongy fermented rice cake), uttapams (savoury rice pancakes) and thalis. There are other branches in Connaught Place and Defence Colony.
