What vegetarian North Indian food can I get?

We also make North Indian favorites: the Punjabi thali, chole bhature, dal makhani, paneer tikka masala, samosas and a full menu of chaat like pani puri, dahi puri and samosa chaat. Wash it down with a mango lassi or masala chai.

What should I order on my first visit?

A masala dosa is the classic first order: a big, crispy crepe with spiced potato inside, served with sambar and two chutneys. If you're with a friend, add a plate of idli or medhu vada and an order of pani puri to share, and finish with a mango lassi. If you'd rather have curry and bread, go for the Punjabi thali or chole bhature.
