| - I may like Dobhan more than I normally would for the following reasons:
1. We had just driven 4 hours from Minneapolis and needed sustenance.
2. We wanted to go to Lao Laan Xang for lunch (at 1:45) on Sunday, but they were closed. So we went to Monty's--who wouldn't have a table for 30 minutes. We were starved and still had to drive 4 hours back home, so we stumbled into Dobhan, who was serving brunch until 3pm. Hooray for keeping good hours!
3. I got the "Bhat Tarkari," which was simply described as a vegetable stew with Nepali spices. I was given the choice (by the waitress) between "Saag" and something else--but she had me at the word "Saag." I loves me some Saag. She served me a generous portion of Saag with black-eyed peas and mushrooms over rice. It was lick-the-plate good. I'm serious--I actually had to stop myself from licking the plate. It seemed relatively healthy, and my tummy was satisfied for a long while.
4. Honestly, for the quality of the dish I had, I would've expected to pay more than $10 including tax and tip. That was a nice contrast from paying $10 for a can of soda and small sandwich in Minneapolis.
In other news, the decor is gorgeous and the service is friendly. Plus, they serve yak meat in more than one dish. I didn't get it, but if I go back, I'll have to try it. I mean, come on...yak meat! Where else are you going to find that?
