| - Ji is a trendy Indian restaurant, so don't expect classic Indian food at low prices. The menu fit its vibe, which seems to be Indian dishes with a twist.
Four of us shared a few dishes, the ones to note are:
- Vegetarian burgers: I've tasted few vegetarian burgers that were enjoyable and Ji served one up that was flavourful and had texture. Vegetarian burgers always tend to be one-toned and tasted like one lump of carbs. Get these!
- Semolina puffs: This reminded me of a marriage of two Indian dishes of papard chaat and pani puri. The best of both worlds. Sour, crunchy, spicy, smooth, such a party on one's tongue.
As for the rest of the dishes... they were were average or below that bar:
- Naanchos: First bite was striking, but it got salty.
- Macaroni Makahni: All cheese, all mush and a tad oily. It didn't feel good to eat this mac and cheese twist.
- Chana Masala: Classic Indian dish that didn't perform. It was meh.
For a great vibe and great service, go to Ji. The waitress was relatable, chill and fun.
