Be ye warned, you are entering a cellphone free zone at Annapurna. This pin-drop-silent establishment really does have a calming effect on visitors, lulling you into a sense of calm and obliterating your sense of self in an almost Zen way. This was exactly what I needed before embarking on the Holiday Elite Event which unleashed a thousand un-Zen like suns upon my soul. (In a good way, of course.)
Aaaaanyway, Annapurna is a bright and commodious space that's very quiet and very robin's egg blue. You might think you are eating inside a cloud, but maybe it's just me. Our sari-clad server was beyond serene as she glided over to gently receive our order. This place is mellow, man.
I picked the idli and sambar and my boss-lady went for the dosa. I've spent too much time in South India to really love my dish, but it was decent and for $7 it was hard to complain. They have a solid selection of South Indian dishes, and various other vegetarian delights. I shall return.
Obligatory Title Pun: An AN-tonym for PERN-icious.
Menu Readability: A well-laid-out tableau.
Need to mention: You can order half an avocado for $2.
What this place teaches me about myself: I would love to eat inside a cloud.
