This menu calling dosa 'naked crepe' and worth $17.59 has the internet in splits

Deep fried patties filled with savoury potatoes served with a tangy dip --- An English language description of the samosas we have come across quite often. The same can be done with different types of foods and an overseas restaurant has done it to the beloved South Indian cuisine.

RPG Group Chairman Harsh Goenka recently shared a photo of a menu which described South Indian delicacies in the English language in great detail. The prices are in dollars which indicates that this is a restaurant based outside India.

First on the list is "Dunked Doughnut Delight" with the description reading, "2 deep fried savoury doughnuts dipped in lentil soup." Guess what this is - medu vada. Next is "Dunked Rice Cake Delight" described as a "Type of savoury rice cake made by steaming a batter consisting of fermented black lentils and rice, dipped in lentil soup." This is, of course, our humble idli. "Naked Crepe" described as a "Crisp rice batter crepe served with a lentil soup, a tangy tomato and classic coconut relish" is next on the menu. No prices for guessing what this is. It is a simple plain dosa.
