Home of the Rice Plate : One town in Karnataka accounts for nearly all of south Indian restaurateurs. Vir Sanghvi visits this temple town of Udupi and the Mangalore backwaters.

Vir meets up with Jayaram Banan, the undisputed king of south Indian fare, and later travels to Mumbai where rice plates first became popular. (From India, in English) (Food Series) (Rpt) G
