    The best part is that the ingredients are 100% healthy unlike the pasta or pizza dough or hamburger buns. The "sambhar" that you call lentil soup is what we also add to boiled rice as a part of our regular meals. The other thing is that you get all the necessary amino acids without consuming any form of meat.

    I like your technique man ! But also do try the indian way (wipe/wash your hands and then Go full CAVEMAN on that dosa - dip it in the sambar and take a bite, dip the next bite in the coconut chutney and try to scoop some of that chutney on to the dosa itself). The see-saw switching back and forth between sambar and chutney is a TRIP ! Then try the combo of sambar and coconut chutney mixed together - that’s another heavenly new flavor to your tastebuds. Tastes far more delicious if you eat that way :) next time I hope you’ll remember my comment and try this.

    Hello! Nice to see you enjoying dosas. Just a tip, Dosa isn’t eaten like a burrito, you have to tear a piece off with one hand and dunk it into the chutney or Sambar or both. So you eat it in bite sized pieces. The Sambar is like a dip and a bit strong on its own. In India we eat with our hands & wash our hands clean before and after meals. You can definitely improvise however you like though. Also just FYI, Dosa is pronounced with a soft d.. like Tho-sa

      In India, Noodles, Sandwiches, French Fries, Pizza And Burger are called cheats, and junk food. All the time No non-vegetarian, only pure vegetarian food - Dosa, Idli, Medu Wada, Gujarati Phoolka Roti or as it is called in Gujarati "Rotli", Dal, Vegetables, Rice is the real meal. @@Jamesnu

    There is a beautiful business concept that we notice besides the wonderful dosas. The part where you mention how the DosaMan continues his enterprise in person, is what the owner's personal touch does to business. Today's business gurus would cringe at calling this even a business as he does all the work instead of having employees serving customers. They would call it self employment at best.
    However, the most important thing is that many guys like DosaMan are more in love with their job and the recognition it brings than the profit or wealth.

    I visted New York this summer for few days only to visit family and do sightseeing. On my last day I made the biggest mistake of going to get a dosa from this man. At first I was told that I was the last person. Then they kept letting more people in. I wasted 5 hours, I repeat 5 hours! to get 1 low quality dosa! 5 hours for 1 dry dosa! He catered more and spent time talking to the last group of 10 people than to me who really was to be the last person. I found him to be unpleasant and the dosa was terrible - no sambar or chutney or tea. All gone. What makes me mad is my own stupidity that the 5 hours I wasted standing in line in the sun for the terrible food - I couldn't spend doing something fun! Also if you are from a city like Toronto like I am - do yourself a favour and buy dosas from the 100 restaurants that sell them than wasting your time here. You'll thank me for this tip. Every time I think about this experience, it actually upsets me. Don't go here!
