| - I've heard great things about Gandhi Roti, so while close to Queen & Bathurst on a chilly Friday, my stomach told me it wanted to try Gandhi Roti.
I'm not going to lie. After pulling up in front of the store-front, I thought "This is it?" It is definitely a hole-in-the wall deli. But I've had enough experiences at hole-in-the-walls that I knew I shouldn't judge so quickly.
I was happy that at the high-hunger state I was in, there was no line-up when I walked in, around 3pm. I wouldn't have had the patience to wait! Not knowing which to choose, I asked the kind lady behind the counter which she would recommend as a vegetarian option, and she suggested the Saag Panner.
After about 10 minutes, I was presented with my Saag Paneer Roti - wow, I really didn't expect it to be that large! But my eyes were delighted at the size. I was very satisfied with the melt-in-the-mouth spinach, I loved the smooth, medium-soft paneer, and even though I asked for no spice, the hint of spice actually added a nice flavour.
The plus about the take-out box is you can seal it again and devour the rest later, and it keeps it clean if you're eating in your car.
4/5 for the food experience only, not for the ambiance.
I will come back here again, but will make my way to try Mother India as I'm influenced by the recommendation from other Yelp members.
p.s. I may not be the best judge of food when I'm hungry...
