India Coffee House. 3.60/5.00

Dilettante and I went to India Coffee House for breakfast this morning. Given that it’s as much an institution as Koshy’s and Imperial, this is a review where I will tread softly.

We started with a glass of limejuice each, lime, sugar, salt and water, seeds and all. Certainly was refreshing, even if it is pretty basic. Please do note the completely retro 70’s glasses. Then Dilettante had an omelet with buttered toast. Truthfully, the toast is more fried in butter than toasted and buttered. I had their famous scrambled eggs (two portions to a plate.), the secret of which I only recently learned. These are absolutely fabulous, as I have previously stated. We shared a masala dosa, it’s mandatory to have at least one, and it isn’t like any other masala dosa you’ll have anywhere else. It isn’t served with sambar, you are expected to eat it with a fork and knife and has a peculiar appeal. This being ICH, no tea was available to satiate Dilettante’s fetish and I enjoyed a cup of great coffee.
