Hi wealthy, I am from south but I don't know about 'pongal'. I am living in north now and breakfast may be, chappati, bread, uppuma, idli, dosa etc. Now the cool season started, everybody at home prefers chappati (roti) and it can give warmth. Since kids are there and they need Tiffin for school I will prepare different breakfast everyday so that they won’t get bored with the same stuff. By the way Maggie/noodles are their favourite but I won’t prepare it for school because it may get cold at the time of eating and may damage their health.

Thank you very much for the information. I am familiar with the dish but not with the name (lol). Here (north) dish is called as 'kichdi' which is very nutritious, people prefer to have the same when they suffer a bad health.

nice to get a response from you. do you eat kadala in the morning? dosa and puttu is fine i feel. but kadala will be heavy to digest i think.

Hey walthymouli, I am from Chennai, my favorite is Idly, vada, chutney and sambhar.At times I also have Idly podi with idlys. Of course my all time favorite is a Crisp Dosa with the same side dishes. I do not prefer to have pongal in the morning, the reason being, for lunch also I will be taking rice. So in order to avoid taking rice more than once, I avoid Pongal.
