This is Mukesh Ambani’s favourite food that costs…, he even takes it on foreign trips, it is…

Mukesh Ambani, Chairman and Managing Director of Reliance Industries Limited, is one of the richest individuals in the world. According to Forbes, as of May 5, 2025, Mukesh Ambani’s real-time net worth is reported at $108 billion. Despite being widely recognized for his sharp business instincts, Mukesh Ambani has a deep appreciation for life’s simpler joys, especially when it comes to food. One of his longtime favorites is South Indian cuisine, with a special fondness for the dishes served at Mysore Cafe in Matunga, Mumbai, a place he has loved since his childhood.

Despite his extraordinary success, Mukesh Ambani’s fondness for simple, traditional dishes such as upma and idli reflects a deep-rooted connection to his modest upbringing. He holds a special affection for a humble Rs 100 South Indian meal from his favorite eatery—so much so that he often carries it with him on international trips.

A video that recently went viral on social media shows YouTubers Ranveer Allahbadia and Kamiya Jani visiting the iconic Mysore Cafe in Matunga. While enjoying a spread of flavorful South Indian dishes, Ranveer asked the staff about Mukesh Ambani’s regular order. The staff revealed that Ambani typically opts for Rasam Vada, Idli, and Onion Rawa. When asked whether he dines in, they shared that he usually prefers to get his food packed. They also added that Upma is another favorite he frequently orders for takeaway.

As per the price list on Zomato, Rasam Vada (two pieces) is priced at ₹115, a plate of Idli costs ₹95, and Onion Rawa Masala Dosa is available for ₹190. According to The Print, the Ambani family’s fondness for Mysore Cafe runs deep. Their love for the eatery’s flavorful offerings—including idlis, upma, dosas, Mysore Pak, chutney, and sambhar—is so strong that they often have the food packed from there, even when heading out on trips.
