It's great fun to relive your favourite childhood moments and for me it was my dinner date with my parents at Hotel Hollywood, which is very closely associated with my childhood. As kids, we would wait for my mom to travel out of station so we can order/have food from here 😁.
Absolute favourite the Idiyappam (₹30/plate of 5) and Mutton Paaya (₹190), which was as usual good. The Paaya from here one wouldn't realise anything while eating but the after taste is a hint of slightly spicy gravy. Paaya is a huge piece so one needs to be really patient while eating it. I always have my Omelette (₹40) customised and they would oblige to give me a onionless Omelette. Personally, I like it that way. Mutton Cutlet (₹160) here would have chunks of Mutton in it and not mince. Very generous portion, I must say.
Mutton Pepper Masala (₹200) clubbed with Appam (₹20 for 4 Pcs) and Wheat Parotta (₹30 for 4 Pcs) were the other dishes ordered. I certainly liked the Appam with that super spicy Mutton Pepper. My parents felt that the Parotta wasn't as good as their previous visits. The ritual is to finish off the meal with their tea (₹20) which we followed, as always.
