We both wondered if we had made a bad decision as we regarded the depleted vessels, but we went ahead and filled our plates with lamb curry, spinach chicken, rice, fried lentil dumplings, beans and carrots along with a little bowl of lentil soup:
It was all good, but the real star of the meal was the dosa:
... which they make to order. You get your choice of a fresh chapaathi (flat wheat bread) or a dosa – a crisp, thin Indian crepe with a potato masala filling with a few curry leaves and sautéed cashews tucked between the bronzed folds. We got one of each and although the warm wheaten chapaathi:
... was very nice, it got dosa-doed by its in-bread, southern cousin. We inhaled both of our carbo circles and the server kindly offered to have the kitchen make us more. We sheepishly asked for another of the hot, crisp, spud stuffed, nut filled discs which we ghee-fully ate. If you were to order a la carte, one of these crepes is the same price of a whole buffet lunch so this midday meal is a mega-deal (at $7.99 per person.) They have their lunch buffet from 11:30 – 2:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday (They are closed Sundays) but you can also order a la carte if you aren’t in the impulse dining mood. Don’t arrive expecting a large variety of buffet dishes. There were two soups, basmati rice and a spiced rice, two curries, vegetables, chicken, fried dumplings, condiments and rice pudding which is pretty extensive for less than eight bucks. Just don’t forget to order the dosa as your bread option.
