Fresh breads, great spices, genuine flavours.I’m so pleased I came across this place, confession, I arrived for a neighbouring place but LOVE cooking curry at home and love authentic flavours.I was so pleased to be welcomed in and enjoy the community atmosphere, fresh food coming in and out the kitchen, and great service from this hardworking small business and family.I’m staying at the Crowne Plaza just two stops along and this place is seriously convenient.

“I am into places featured on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. I've been on a cross-country twice from California to Maine and back hitting places of interests and Triple D locations. The place is simple but the food is exotically delicious. There is some spicy heat but not overly hot. Pro-tip: have some Lassi which is a yogurt drink just in case. The special rice is worth the extra charge and don't forget to finish with some rice pudding to nicely round things out.“
