Description

Set on Hillside Avenue, this compact spot is a destination for fresh desi pitha—a traditional winter treat—with the bhapa pitha earning particular praise. However, the experience here comes with mixed signals. While the authentic flavors initially earned the cafe praise, recent visitors note issues with food quality, cleanliness, and payment handling. Takeout is also available.
