Taj Indian Sweets and Restaurant

This is a vegetarian restaurant that I do recommend. I really enjoyed the food here and managed to try several dishes I hadn't tried before. It was a good place to eat because it was really cheap, tasty, not too far from home with plenty of parking and I was with vegetarian friends. There is a huge cabinet of Indian sweets in the front counter and the cheese dumpling in spiced syrup my friend had and the milk- based one I had was delicious.

I had not had a samosa in the style they had- cut up with coriandar, chilli sauce and yoghurt on top. So yummy. I could actually taste the yoghurt in the vegetable curry and really enjoyed it. The naans were a bit cold though. My friend showed me how to punch a hole in the puri, put in a little spiced pototo and fill it up with broth then pop it in your mouth. This was all new and exciting for me.

Dinner for 4 was $60 and we were full. It operates as a take- away joint so you pay up front. The atmosphere is like any cheap Asian food joint- could be cleaner, you have to collect your own cutlary but is okay. There are Indian grocery stores around here too- I finally got the cheap dried chickpeas I'd been looking for!
