| - Be prepared to eat with your hands! They have cutlery if you want, but the traditionalists eat with their hands! =)
I am not an expert when it comes to South Indian Cuisine, but they have made me a lover of the food. So that has to say something.
The Good:
1 - Vegetarian - so as a vegetarian I don't have to look through the menu for what I can and can't eat.
2 - The buffet is great, especially as a new person to the cuisine, it allowed me to try the different foods.
3 - There are two hand washing stations.
4 - There is plenty of parking.
5 - They have paan. This is not something I enjoy, but for those who grew up with this stuff, it is nice to know where you can get it. For those who are new to this cuisine, I wouldn't recommend this. It is the stuff wrapped in a leaf when you go out to pay and it costs $1.
6 - It is cheap! I don't recall the exact price, but around $10 for a buffet.
7 - I love getting the candy coated fennel seeds on my way out!
The Not So Good:
1 - Sometimes you have to wait a bit to get the dosas or puri, especially if they are busy.
2 - The idlis are not available with the buffet. They are at the Vancouver location, but not here.
For the Newbies like me, I would stick to either the dosas, idlis or the thali.
Give this place a try if you are looking for something different. For those that don't know, South Indian food is very different from the indian food you get at most restaurants.
