Best Tiramisu
A few years ago my hunt for good Tiramisu took me to a few places in Bangalore, but no place was satisfactory until I tasted Tiramisu in Infinitea.
At Rs 75/per piece, this Tiramisu is the best I have tasted in Bangalore and highly recommend it. If you want to take it to go, they pack each piece individually in foil. Very satisfying.

High quality fare
A few of my extra pounds can be attributed to Asha sweets. If you are the weight watching/calorie conscious type, then steer clear of this place.
Else, go over to Asha sweets and try their Anjeer Pista cutlet (APC). I would bet good money that no rank chef of the Mughal kings managed to create anything close to APC. While you are at it, also sample the moong dhal halwa and the rasamalai. By this time, the ghee would have hit your brain and it will only be partly functioning to the point that you will not be able to taste anything else. My advice is to quit now and come back again some other time.
You will have no hesitation agreeing with me that money spent in Asha sweets is money well spent.

Excellent Masala Dose
Benne Masale aka., Butter Masala Dosa is in high demand in this little hillbilly restaurant. Walk in on a Sunday morning and it may be a long time before you get seated and an even longer wait for your order to be served. In most cases, one dose is not enough which means you wait longer for your refill order. And yet, the frustrating delay is totally worth it for the dose is outstanding - to put it mildly. At the end of the meal, the waiter will hand out little pieces of old newspapers cut into squares which serve as paper napkins!
CTR in Malleshwaram, Vidyarthi Bhavan in Basavanagudi and Udipi Krishna Bhavan in the heart of Majestic/Chickpet are legendary for creating consistently great tasting Masal doses. All 3 places are reminiscent of life in the sixties to people who have been around since then. These restaurants have not upgraded with time, preferring to retain their original ambience which is now antiquated, but thankfully without compromise in food quality.
I'll quit rambling at this point and strongly recommend that you drop whatever it is you are doing and rush to any of these three places post haste for some delectable Masal doses. Plan to eat two or three doses for best results. Since the three places taste different, you will want to cover all of them at some point.
Btw, dose with an 'e' is the original South Indian name, corrupted as "dosa" by the British and adopted by the English speaking population of the country. Some of us prefer to retain the original name.
Benne = butter in Kannada.
