The large contingent of diners from the Indian subcontinent attests to that. The food is aggressively seasoned without overwhelming the palate. The long menu includes dishes familiar and unfamiliar. The star of the menu is a selection of dosas, huge and very thin rice crepes folded to enclose a filling of seasoned vegetables. Another good choice is the uttapam, a thick disk of rice and lentils studded with onions and other vegetables.
Vegetarian curries aplenty provide yet another option.
Desserts are displayed in an area next to the dining room so diners can view the remarkable array of colorful finales. If the mood strikes you, have your dessert with some surprisingly good cappuccino. 2001 by Washington Magazine Inc.
