  • I was here recently for Sunday lunch. The lady I came with had been raving about this place but I had resisted her invitations; being South Indian (SI) myself, I knew that any SI fare would pale in comparison to home cooking. Also, my mom owns an SI restaurant as well, so my standards are high. First off, I thought the prices were for idli, vada, dosa were all way too high--$7 for 3 idlis?! What! Anyhow, we ordered idlis, a veg. curry and the fish fry (pomfret). The idlis themselves had good flavor and a nice pillowy texture. But the sambar and coconut chutney were terrible. Both were runny and lacked flavor. The condiments are really the crucial to enjoying idlis so this was a big disappointment. The pomfret was quite tasty and, at $17, a good value. You get the whole fish--head to tail--so it's perfect for sharing among 2 or even 3 people. Pomfret itself is a yummy fish and the bold seasoning really enhanced it. I would come here again for this item. The vegetable curry lacked salt and flavor--a totally forgettable dish. And you had to pay extra for rice! This annoyed me but the people I came with didn't share my outrage; they argued that paying for rice is standard practice these days. I guess I'm old fashioned then--a curry needs to come with rice or bread. Chai wasn't all that great but SI-style coffee was excellent. I guess for people who don't get SI food often in Calgary, this would be an okay choice. But if you are ever in Southern California, then check out my mom's restaurant Jeeva's Kitchen for the best SI food in the Inland Empire!
