so the fiance took me on a bday trip to toronto :) ANd i insisted while ther we had to have him try his first dosa. He kept asking what is it??...... my answers were one of these two statements every time he asked "dont worry about" or "its delicious thats all you need to know". lol He looked stuff up and decided it was a rice pancake and thought it sounded boring. I said just you wait.
SO we stopped in madras masala while we were wandering around the city. I order all veg (which i almost never do) and the fiance took it in stride. I ordered my fav since i was a kid puchkas!!! They call them pani puris, but they'll always be puchkas to this bengali. ANd we also got the mysore masala dosa.
The dosa was great and exactly what a first dosa experience should be for someone. The fiance conceded indeed there was nothing boring about this crispy "rice pancake". He also loved the sambar. I myself am always partial to the coconut chutney that comes with.
We had fun with the pani puri but iv never found a place outside of india that makes them quite right....but then what do ya expect i guess. We ate every bite so clearly they werent bad by any means ;)
The menu was pretty big and i'd have loved to try more stuff but we were being good so alas till next time for the gobi manchurian, the chat and all the other delicious things that i crave!!
