My very first experience with authentic South Indian cuisine and I absolutely loved it! My boyfriend and I were wandering around the area to find a place for brunch but we ended up here, and I guess why not?
The place is tiny yet cozy. The staff was quick assigning seats for us. He was very nice and helpful. We ordered dosa and papri chaat. I was told that these dishes are one of the most popular street food in South India. The food came out late but they were warm and nice.
Papri Chaat came out first with cilantro (hari) chutney. Indian tacos? Anyways, it is little crisp round spiced crackers, layered with spices, chickpeas and drizzled with yogurt. And the sweet, tangy and savory taste made me fall in love with this dish right away. I think I'm ready to try other "chaats" haha.
We ordered 2 different dosas and I was surprised of how big they are. Each dosa came with different types of chutneys: coconut chutney, tomato coconut chutney, and sambar. They all tasted amazing! The cheese dosa was a bit salty though. They were all perfectly crispy and delicious.
My first impression with real Indian cuisine was marvelous! I was impressed with the food and the staff here !! One of those hole in the walls where the food is pretty authentic (according to the boyfriend). But I will definitely come back to this restaurant to try out other dishes when I'm around this area.
