A Journey Through 100 Years of MTR: Legacy, Tradition & Iconic Dishes
Step into the rich history of Bengaluru’s iconic Mavalli Tiffin Rooms (MTR) - a culinary institution that has been serving generations since 1924. Born from humble beginnings, MTR’s story starts with three visionary brothers from a small village near Udupi, Karnataka, who brought their culinary expertise to Bengaluru. From its early days as the Brahmin Coffee Club to becoming a global symbol of authentic South Indian cuisine, MTR’s journey is one of passion, perseverance, and perfection.
Learn how Yagnanarayana Maiya, affectionately known as Yagnappa, elevated MTR by introducing revolutionary practices in hygiene and sanitation after being inspired by European standards. Discover how these efforts cemented MTR's reputation as a place where tradition meets innovation.
