    This comfy restaurant hits the sweet spot between authentic Indian food, attentive service and charming atmosphere. You don’t usually hear Indian eateries being vaunted for Murtabaks yet Chettiar’s Tiffin Cafe breaks the frame of mind. Their Murtabak set comes with two thick and dense meaty servings, somewhat resembling pancakes and paired with onions and addictive curry. The dough is thin and dry, bundling the chicken meat that is bursting with rich spices.

    Look for their set meals
