Udupi meals

Also called: Udupi meals, Удупи-милс, South Indian meals, Meals на банановом листе

The temple-kitchen template that South Indian vegetarian restaurants copied across the world: rice, sambar, two vegetable poriyals, rasam, curd, a sweet, all served on a banana leaf in a fixed order, no onion, no garlic.

How it's eaten

Fold the leaf towards you when you finish; away means you did not enjoy it.
