"Flavours of good cow ghee made its presence felt. The combination was excellent. This turned out to be one of the best Upma I have had in a while."
"Its texture had a simplicity that upma chefs achieve only with long practice; caught somewhere between glutinous and fluffy. It imploded slowly on the tongue, slipping down before you knew it."
"No one prepares Upma Podi – a preparation of brown broken rice, dry roasted lentils and spices like Café Madras in Matunga."
"An iconic 75-year-old eatery, Café Madras is known to make the most delicious upma podi."
"One of my favorite dish is upma podi which is served at Madras Cafe, Mumbai. I think it is one of the best place to eat anything South Indian."
"Served with chutney and sambhar, this amazingly easy dish can be supplemented with the fiery rasam that the eatery is so famous for."
"Upma podi was essentially an upma cake like an idly covered in a yogurty coconut chutney. It complemented the dryness of the upma really well and was an instant winner."
