The Scene
Set on the southbound side of Lawrenceville Highway, this South Indian restaurant makes up for a lack of atmosphere with bountiful flavors. Booths and banquet tables line the large, white- and rose-tinted dining room, and a buffet line (only available at lunch) sits to one corner. An attentive--but not overly invasive--waitstaff adds to the experience.
The Food
Traditional South Indian food is wholly vegetarian, fried yet greaseless. Appetizers lean toward crisp, spongy fritters of lentils and chickpeas. For an entree, try dosai, thin rice or lentil and wheat crepes filled with buttery potatoes, onions, cauliflower and a masala of spices. Uthappam--Indian-style pancakes packed with tomato, onions, carrots and peas--are gigantic. Fans of eggplant and curry should go for creamy baigan bartha. Dip poori--light, fried wheat bread wisps--into everything. Halwa makes a nice dessert. The sweet, aromatic honey and butter emulsion goes well with carrot.
