[Indian Food] NAMASTE~! :) I went to an indian restaurant near UNP!

Namaste~! ALL IS WELL!

Does this sound familiar to you? Namaste is "Hi" in Indian language. Why i know this? cuz i went to an indian restaurant last weekend!! 

My friend and i went to have some indian food in the restaurant located along the street in front of UNP. Since nobody wanted to challenge tasting indian food with me, i had to call my good friend for my treat. All we knew about indian food was that there are many kinds of spicies and most of the dishes are spicy and have strong smell of herbs and spicies that we somtimes smell from the indians i guess (?) 

Unlike we expected, when we entered the restaurant, we didn't smell much the strong indian food indredients, and we were kinda relieved for that.  I was actually a little bit worried that i might not even be able to stay to think of my order.

Anyway as we had no knowledge of indian food, we asked the indian owner to recommend us the restaurant's specialties. I even asked for a non-spicy dish, but unfortunately every indian dish is spicy he said. 

THESE ARE WHAT WE ORDERED AND WERE RECOMMENDED BY THE OWNER

This is Chicken curry. It was real good. My friend who doesnt like spicy food even liked this.  But the crushed mint leaves were a little annoying cuz personally i hate mint.

This is ROTI, a thin bread that is a staple foold of indians as well as rice.

As we were told by the owner, we dipped the piece of bread into the curry. It was very delicious.

This is SAMOSA. It is like indian style of dumpling or empanada. It was salty to me. i think the filling is made up of green beens, sweet potatos, etc.

This is DOSA. It visually resembles the french desert, CREPE. But Its taste is exactly opposite of crepe. The indian owner recommended this dish to us, saying that this is the only non-spicy dish in his restaurant and it is sweet. Do you see the red sauce covering entire side of that thin bread? It's catchup. And the yellow cubes inside are chunks of sweet potatos.Can you imagnine the taste of sweet potato with catchup? Haaaaaaay...... This was the only dish we couldnt finish. It is not something i want to try to taste ever again in my life. Such a weird combination of ingredients....

Well... Generally the food was good and i liked the spicinessof all dishes.

My Score :
