I studied in Manipal (also in Karnataka not very far from Bangalore)and I remember every time we had someone going down to Bangalore - we would definitely ask them to get lotsa Rum Tarts Having Rum Tarts from Sweet Chariot at Brigade Road.

A flavour of Malabar

by cochinjew about Nandanam Kerala Restaurant

In the suburb of Malleshpallyam, near the airport, there is a cluster of shops and restaurants owned and operated by expatriate Malayalees from Malabar, most of whom are of humble Moslem origins. ( unlike Moslems elsewhere, malabar moslems observe the caste system and are neither fanatic nor religious, but sweet and pleasant. difficult to imagine them blowing themselves up) I had two appams, which are thin wafer like pancakes, much reminiscent of the ethiopian ones. the vegetable stew was made with coconut milk and the curry was a mixed vegetarian one. Once again the price is too low even to mention.
