We ordered the channa dal with rice which was very tasty as was the gobi parantha (they subbed mango chutney for the raita that normally is served with it)

I’ll make a note at the top of the post. I wonder how the egg is involved, I assume in some type of marinade since there is no actual batter on it. I’ll ask again when I go, since I have been told it is vegan, and make a note on the post.

thanks. jd

I was very disappointed, and they can’t leave the egg out, according to the waitress.

It was such a relaxing place. Now it is a Karaoke bar where called Voicebox you can rent rooms and sing karaoke with your friends.

Sarah – I agree, the hummus is tasty!

KEN – I’d been to the tea store but never dined. When I lived in the area I primarily dined at Paradox – all the time , Laughing Planet and the old Salvador Molly’s. Now I need to finally try Kinta….
