Balamurali Snacks Shop

Let me ask you something, Have you ever experienced an embarrassing moment with your friend? with whom you grew up together? Well recently I did and I just wanna know whether am I the only one?! We both grew up together different schools though and everything went fine until one day the DARK DAY of our ahhh technically my life dawned. Yes, it is our Higher secondary board exam results day :( He made it out with 95% and I hmmm made it out [Students of my category will understand] And then we both joined Engineering which is the minimum qualification you have to attain in my state to be crowned "Jobless".

Engineering life was so good especially during symposiums wherein you have the task of mailing the invitation to all your peers of other college to ensure there is a huge crowd on the special day, well you may think this is kind of gathering crowd for a political meeting but stop being so dumb we are from Royal Institutions and we don't give away Alcohol and Biryani we just give them Certificates and Biryani. 

I thought of mailing this invite to my childhood friend turned DEMON and I asked him "DAii what is your mail id?" and I got the most embarrassing reply www.ramanujam94.iit@gmail.com Tell me fellows out of all the user id Gmail give has he have to mention that bloody IIT to me???? then I figured out something. These user ids are meant to easily identify their locations so I created one myself, lk1994.ammabakery@gmail.com I mean Yes any Engineering college in Tamilnadu has a Bakery next to it which indeed will be more famous than the college itself. You ask someone the way to the college they immediately say go straight 500m and ask where is Anna Bakery and the college is next to it" If you are in Coimbatore the situation is more funny They will say " Go straight 20m Take right of Kovai Bakes, then 30m left of KR Bakes and straight 200m the college is opposite to Aroma Bakes” Awesome la?!

From a city of Bakery the students are always craved to get a good shop where they can get the Tamilnadu special VADAI ada ada addaa [Colloquial expression of ecstasy] The awesomely amazingly wonderfully marvelously brownfully softfully roastfully and more importantly cheapfully available VADAI is a favourite food for any Tamilan. After an immense travel of 2 Kms we found "Balamurali Snack Shop" which in that time looked like the Abath Pandhavan [God of Savior] KRISHNA.

Yea I get it let me start it here formally, for those of you who don't know we are the idoits who are writing about the street foods of Coimbatore in the craziest way we know. You can view our post www.wthefud.com to know about us and read our previous post on Dosa Point. Well if you don’t wanna know still go there and look at it.

Now, I introduce you to the Joey Mr.PK to share his experience about gulping two sets in each vada variety.

You say Balamurali snacks, when see the racks that portray the awful dishes they make and besides another person handles the big vessel of boiling oil with a long spatula (that’s what they call in English I suppose, but I know it only as karandi). He uses it to collect the dishes and drains the oil from it and put it in the place for display but it portrays in a way that like ithu sema taste ah iruku, nala sapdinga, aali podingaa. It is served with a suiting chutney, couldn’t think further suiting taste for it.

Coming to the dishes they provide, felt nostalgic the dish which has crispy pieces of semiya like in the outer and the masala apt combination of filling inside that was similar to that had from mom's preparation naming it as kurvi kudu (bird's nest) the outer crispy nest type and inner yummy masala combination which appeals in taste and look. The other dishes are ulanthu vadai, bonda and the samosa which seems puzzled and beautiful with the correct hole in ulunthu vadai and folds to keep the filling in the samosa while they are making as beauty in making, it is as sensing to the taste buds. Yet it misses the coffee, tea or lime juice along with masal vadai feels the tiny Priyanga, which you all can expect from our next scribbling, the best place.

Filling the heart with taste and stomach with food is always the best match and this is another good place that provides it.

When taking a photo they boasted that an article was already published in Hindu and we could check it, maybe. I gave a smile but we are not something who writes success story or similar, we are the foodies and we taste different foods just for other foodies because we love eating and writing.

Wow Mr.Joey you are right we are the Foodies we are the Foodies let us sing that along. But still man you forgot to tell about the 11 Vadais which you dumped in CHEATER.

Fellows Hi again I am a good boy Like I promised in my last Blog I have prevented Miss.Priya from typing her intellectual mind maps into this blog. 


Now comes the important lesson > What should you do when you don't have a catchy ending?
 

Well that sums up our first work [Eating] and the secondary work [Writing]. Reminding again we don’t write reviews and rate shops we love eating, we love writing and we do what we love to do. I hope you had a break from your regular reads. Drop your comments below and suggest us more street foods in Coimbatore. We will be happy if you can sponsor us too <3

Street Foods of Coimbatore - Dosa Point

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaangg!!! Well that is how I am supposed to kick start this!! A banging start line that will glue you to the screen, make you scroll a little more to create those curiosity to read this entire type up. Well it sucks! No not you reading this, but my creativity for the starting punch line.!
Well a bunch of hypocrites topped off to an extent that they found their wallets scratchy for the next day dinner. Hunger driven, we found this magical place called 'DOSA POINT'. Before I hit you with the adjectives on how awesomely deliciously sweetly smellely that food was let me tell you about us. Well nobody reads it if I write it at the end.

If you think this is a review to create awareness; CHak de India; Zindagi na milagei dorbaa [God Forbid my Hindi]; promote shops by paid reviews well BINGO its time you stop hanging out dumb with those normal notations. We are crap and we do crap, now as a new crap we are writing crap about the thing we just ate. I hope the shopkeeper does not read the latter. Loved by fun we are doing something; sharing this info on street foods to you! I am LK and I will introduce you to my fellow idiots on the way.

On to business now,

Food is theeeee best thing in the world. Music is good but Food comes first. To all those kind hearted sweet minded hearty people, FEEL PROUD you are the best people in the world. Well those of you who are slim like this Priyanga girl you don't stand a chance to raise your hand for the statement. You guys are bad I mean tell me how come I get fat just by smelling Sushi and you are still 28 inches in waist after dumping in the entire grill?

The Joey of our gang Mr.PK who is always eyed on his food will take up now.!

Dosa Point -  a small push cart dine place, around the corner of the road. Having the most portion occupied by dosa kaal and having dishes on it, to keep it hottt. The man plays with dosa karandi and gives yummy, tasty food, which are perfectly timed, cooked and served. Two more lungi men assist in giving the compelling and suiting side dishes for it.

The main protagonist is Dosa! Apart from the traditional and commonly found masal dosa, panner dosa, egg dosa, there's more special found in here. There are many other dishes too, which are entirely different. Starting off with two idli's and crab curry. The taste of such combination can never be replaced. With that thought, in eager tried the same with fish gravy, it tasted better than the earlier combination. Again tried the previous combo to check which is better and finally landed up eating a lot. Every dish compliments with its side dish. Next the main dish - Chicken dosa, Mutton dosa and Egg dosa, Egg Chapathi, Vechu Parotta with Egg/Chicken/Mutton. There are freshly made chicken, mutton gravies that are kept hot to add in between the dosa's. The battle between the taste buds goes on and on and the tummy calls come on and on.. That Heavenly feel unless you are calorie conscious.

Egg Chappathi the first time for me, as the Chef buried the halfly boiled egg within the chappathi and then turning it over giving a gravy massage on the Chappathi’s bare back. Served too hot I said myself to wait seconds, but just like Priya it never listens, I mean my fingers and they went in search of those non steamy corners of the Chappathi. Man it is AWESOME!

At last the egg - half boil, full boil, omelet, one side omelet, kaalaki, Chicken/Fish/Mutton/Crab/Kolambu Kaalaki, these many varieties from egg alone which stays mostly the Dhoni [finisher] and mouth stays with its taste on hours to come by. 

As time goes by, people rush surrounding the shop and with plates in hand waiting for their order to come. Plate bounces from all to the Mr. Sanjeev Kapoor trying to get them first.

Knock Knock,

See why I called him Joey?! True guys he ate all those while I snapped up these pics. But yea we are foodies and that is what we do EATing [Energizing and Tasting] overloaded.

 Now the climax scene and I am leaving it up to the passionate Journalist of our team Priya, nick named with so many words that we can make up a new Oxford Dictionary with those.

“Airtel dosa kadai” this little shack just outside the compounds of airtel showroom near Lakshmi mill signal serves you with heart full of yummyness on the plate. Matter of candid…just lean on the bike, have a plate of dosa watching the vehicles rushing through the roads..!!

No matter what your taste buds favor…this chap will not disappoint you. Customize the dosa with the stuffing u zeal. Idhukku mela bore enakku thookam vandhuduchu. [Translated: its boring I am feeling sleepy]

Ahhhhhhh, Sorry dude I will ensure this doesn’t happen next time :D

Well that sums up our first work [Eating] and the secondary work [Writing]. Reminding again we don’t write reviews and rate shops we love eating, we love writing and we do what we love to do.
