Located in Herndon, Country Oven transforms from a struggling bakery into a vibrant culinary destination under Sravan Paduru and Selvathambi Gangadhar. Their focus extends beyond baked goods, offering authentic South Indian cuisine, including jackfruit biryani and dosas. The recent addition of chef Ricky Reddy has elevated their breakfast menu, featuring beloved dishes like idli and vada. The business thrives on affordability, making it possible for customers to enjoy a satisfying meal with just a few dollars.
"Affordable pricesâthat was our key when we started this restaurant," Gangadhar says. "If a person is coming with even $5, with $1 chai and one puff he can have a good evening."
When Sravan Paduru and Selvathambi "Thambi" Gangadhar bought Country Oven in 2012, it was a struggling bakery. They successfully reinvigorated the place with a pared-down menu of cakes, savory pastries, coffee, and chai.
