This restaurant's first day was Halloween, so it has been open less than a week. We were so excited…read moreto see a new restaurant offering both Nepalese and Indian food. Eric R. and Rebecca K. joined me for dinner here last night. The restaurant was very busy for a Wednesday night which is awesome. The service was great, and we were checked on by numerous people. We started with the vegetable samosa chaat, and it was deeeeelicious! Eric R. ordered the mixed curry on the Nepalese menu, which has chicken, lamb, and shrimp. He also loves saag paneer and decided to order that too. I ordered tandoori roti to go with it. Rebecca K. got the paneer korma and the cherry coconut stuffed naan. Two bowls of rice accompanied all of this. We picked from spice levels, making the curry a little spicier than the saag paneer, for example. Everything was really delicious. We also all got hot masala chai. This actually came after all of the food, but it was delicious and creamy to temper the heat of spicy curry. I was stuffed by the end of the meal, and we were given to go containers to box up the remaining food. I would love to return and try more food. Rebecca K. wanted to try vegetable momo but they were "sold out" so that could be for next time. I wish this restaurant great success!

Overall, it was not busy at all when I walked in even on Valentine's Day. The veggie samosa was…read moredelicious, but the veggie and chicken pakora was just alright since the chicken was overcooked. The aloo paratha and the lamb rogan josh were just okay, they needed a little more salt or seasoning to it. The chicken chili momos were delicious. Despite the flaws, it's an addition to the dining scene of the Manhattan, KS area and I might come back to try more things on the menu.

I was in Topeka last weekend with my friend Rebecca K. to do some shopping, and she suggested stopping here to take the food back to Manhattan. However, I worked up a hunger and we decided to eat an early dinner. The restaurant opens for dinner at 4:30 PM. We arrived right before 5 and the France v. England third place World Cup Match was on. I got a mango lassi and we ordered chaat papri for an appetizer. I decided to order a lot so I could bring some back to Eric R. who loves Indian food. I got the badami chicken kebob as I had never heard of this but it sounded amazing. I also got lamb vindaloo. Rebecca K. got her own dish and garlic naan to share. The chaat papri game out with three chutneys on the side and it was SO good. The badami chicken was marinated in yogurt, lemon, almond paste, and spices. It was served with onions on a sizzling platter like fajitas! We got plenty of basmati rice with our meal. It was absolutely delicious. I had lots of food to take home and share with Eric R. the next day. The service was also excellent. I will definitely be back here to try new dishes, especially since there are many that I do not see typically on Indian restaurant menus.
