I visited this place expecting a good thattu vadai set, but it was quite disappointing. The taste was far from authentic—they’ve added unnecessary masalas and even peri-peri seasoning, which completely spoiled the traditional flavor. It felt more like an experiment than the classic dish. If you’re looking for a genuine thattu vadai set experience, Salem is still the best place for it. Unfortunately, this place didn’t meet expectations, and I wouldn’t consider trying it again. Price: 60 rupees, not worth for it.
Star Momos is a humble roadside momo cart offering a simple yet satisfying food experience. Located on the sidewalk, this affordable eatery is perfect for a quick snack on the go. The Thatu set, a Salem special, stands out as the highlight and is definitely worth trying. The momos are decent for the price, but the main attraction is the Thatu set. While the seating options are limited, given the cart's location, it’s still a great choice for an inexpensive bite. Overall, it offers good value for money and serves tasty food that’s worth a visit.!
I absolutely love the snacks here. Everything is crunchy, flavourful, and always fresh. Perfect spot for satisfying cravings. Thattu vada set is one of the best here and a must-try! Hygienic preparation and packing are good. Highly recommend!
