There are many small restaurants in Coorg where you can enjoy snacks and meals. There are numerous road stalls which offer a varied number of cuisines including Indian, Chinese, Tibetan and Continental. Coorgi cuisine is tempered generously with coconut, curry leaves, chilli, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, ginger and spices like pepper and cardamom. These spices grow here in abundance and are used in generous amounts. But veggies are in for some disappointment. Coorgis are compulsive meat eaters and their all-time favourite is pork. So for the veggies only hope is the Udupi Hotel that serves pure vegetarian, or the usual masala dosas at East End Hotel (near Tollgate, Madikeri). East End serves drinks as well. Coorg Hotel (opposite Gen. Cariappa's statue) dishes out authentic Coorg curry and paranthas. Located near the Raja's Seat is Raj Darshan which offers local fare and north Indian food.
