"Samudra" means ocean. We cook like we live beside one.
Since 2006, our family kitchen in Balthila has served the food of coastal Karnataka: Udupi-style tiffin at sunrise, hearty meals at noon, and sizzling starters as the sun sets over the Western Ghats.
Everything is prepared fresh daily, in a kitchen that has never once cooked anything but pure vegetarian food.
You'll find us right on the Bangalore–Mangalore highway via Sullia, on the way to Kukke Subrahmanya and Coorg, with parking at the door and seating for the whole bus.
