If you’re ever traveling on the Satara–Pune highway and craving authentic Maharashtrian flavours, Hotel Manas Banana Leaf is a must‑stop! 🤤💛
This is one of my favourite spots for Nashta while driving from Pune towards Satara!

✨ What I Loved:
🌿 Ambience: Clean, peaceful, and family-friendly. Perfect for a refreshing highway halt.
🍛 Food Quality: Absolutely top-notch! Everything tasted fresh, flavourful, and comforting.
🚻 Clean Washrooms: A BIG plus for travelers. Super clean and well-maintained!
🍽️ Variety: From classic Maharashtrian, South Indian nashta to full meals, they have a LOT to choose from.

🔥 My Picks:
💥 Their Misal Pav is a total game-changer — spicy, balanced, and full of flavour!
☕ And the Filter Coffee- Smooth, aromatic, and just the right kick for the road.

If you love clean spots with amazing food and quick service, this place deserves a bookmark! ⭐
