South Kitchen, South Indian restaurant in Basavanagudi, India.
South Kitchen is a restaurant in Basavanagudi, a neighborhood in northern Bangalore, specializing in South Indian food such as dosas and idlis. The dining room spans two floors and has a simple, contemporary layout with no frills.
The restaurant opened in 2015 with a focus on recipes from Karnataka from the very beginning. It has since grown into a recognized dining spot in this part of the city.
South Kitchen follows traditional recipes without onion or garlic, a cooking practice rooted in local dietary customs found across this part of Karnataka. Guests can taste this directly in the food, which tastes noticeably different from what most city restaurants serve.
The restaurant is close to main bus routes and easy to reach by public transport. Arriving before the main meal rush makes for a more comfortable visit, as seating fills up quickly during peak hours.
Each morning the kitchen makes Shavige Bhath using hand-pulled rice noodles based on an old family recipe. This handwork with the noodles is a step that most restaurants in Bangalore have long stopped doing.
