I was in the Albion Road and Carrier Drive area of Etobicoke and decided to Yelp popular restaurants in the area. This led us to Samosa and Sweet Factory.
If purchasing sweets one does need to take a number. The line up for the sweets orders was quite long. The cashier mentioned something about it being a festival (Google tells me it is the Punjabi New Year or Baisakhi). There are several displays of sweets and snacks as well as an area to purchase hot food. Will have to return another time to try some of the sweet treats and hot food.
To purchase samosas we didn't need to take a number and we proceeded to cashier #3 as the signs indicated. I mentioned it was my first visit to their store and inquired about the flavours of samosas available. We ended up purchasing 5 potato and peas samosas for $1, and 3 spinach and potato samosas for $1.
There was a short wait for the samosas to be prepared. The spinach and potato samosa was quite flavourful and had plenty of filling. I enjoyed the potato and peas samosa a bit better, mainly because it seemed they had prepared it more recently and thus the dough was quite crispy and hot.
8 samosas for $2 is a great deal. I prefer the lighter texture of their dough compared to some other places I've tried (like Babu) and the samosas didn't seem greasy. I know I will be back for more!
