We went to Woodlands on a tip and were so happy with our meal.

The place is non-descript on the first floor of a mall, but what it lacks in decorative character, it MORE than makes up for with the food and drink.

For drinks we opted for a jaljeera pani and a masala milk.  The first is a savoury drink from Bombay (Mumbai) with black pepper, ginger, red chillies, cloves and asafoetida.  It was refreshing and unusual.  The taste was unexpected, but really good.  The masala milk was delicious.  It is infused with saffron, almonds, pistachios, cardamom and nutmeg.  We had it cold, but it can also be served hot.

For food, we shared a Mysore pain dosa and a South Indian thali.  The dosa was coated with a red chutney and the taste was first class.  Even without the condiments, it would have been delicious on its own.  

The thali was really good.  The dal, potatoes and all of the other little pots of joy were super tasty and accompanied with some chapatis (we could have had purees), it was a great way to eat a lot of different dishes.  It came with a sweet as well - a semia kheer.  It is a vermicelli and milk dessert and was really good.

The service was polite and prompt and we had a really good time.  I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for great vegetarian South Indian food.
