Restaurant #1: A Pleasant Surprise
/
We don’t have a map or a chart or a plan yet. How will we dine at every restaurant in our town?
Although I am a planner, it was dinnertime and we decided to just jump into our cuisine quest at a nearby restaurant we had never tried before.
Tucked in a strip mall between a UPS store and vitamin market, this “Indian & Nepalese Food” restaurant used to be a Hawaiian shaved ice counter. So, that is what we expected, just with more curry.
We can still get delicious Hawaiian shaved ice, but we have to drive a lot further.
I did not expect this new restaurant to have a fancy interior, with intimate lighting and red and gold accents. I did not expect cloth napkins. I did not expect the place to be triple the size of the previous shaved ice restaurant.
Lentil soup for everyone.
Homestyle Nepalese entrees. Classic Indian dishes. Great service. Delicious, if a bit spicy, food. Large quantities.
I should have written down what these dishes are called. Chicken with vegetables in a sauce. Served with naan bread or steamed rice. Yummy!
The best part, live performances!
Would we return? Two forks up!
Are there any restaurants in your town that have been completely transformed (for the better, or for the worse)?
