"After chatting with the owner, I learned that the café has been open for about a year. I visited on a weekday afternoon with a fellow dosa enthusiast. They offer a variety of vegetarian and meat options, with the meat sourced responsibly, ensuring it's halal-friendly for Muslim diners.
I ordered the Pepper Chicken Dosa (medium spicy) for $8.29, while my friend opted for the Chicken Tikka Dosa (mild), also priced at $8.29. Our dosas came with two chutneys and a small bowl of corma. The owner informed me that if a vegetarian dosa is ordered, it would be served with a small bowl of Sambar instead.
The dosas were rolled more like a sandwich wrap than the traditional style I’m used to, but I actually appreciated the change. The Pepper Chicken Dosa had a significant kick, and in hindsight, I wish I had gone for the milder Chicken Tikka Dosa. Normally, I can finish a dosa in one sitting, but I found myself quite full after just half of mine.
Overall, considering the quality and price, Hot Breads is definitely a winner. I plan to return to explore more items on their menu. My friend also tried two croissants: one filled with chicken and the other with goat. She enjoyed them but cautioned against heating them too long, as they can get greasy.
Recommendations:
- Chicken Tikka Dosa for $8.29
