Udipi

April26

ZOMG! I can’t believe I went my whole life without eating Indian food! Loren took me to Udipi recently and we had the lunch buffet. It’s $7.99 and amazing! The owners are from south India (where they are mostly vegetarian with the exception of fish) and everything is vegetarian and delicious. I can’t wait to go again!

Udipi just moved locations.  The Yelp page says they are on Lawrenceville Hwy in Decatur and once you get there, the new location is posted on the door.  It’s in the same shopping center at the Last Chance Thrift Store.

I have dreams about this food it’s so good. I suggest you expiriement with the different side sauces but my favorite was the white one.  It was a coconut based sauce and was good with almost everything.  The green one had a lot of cilantro and mint flavors to it, the brown was sweet and the reddish orange sauce was very citrusy.  The big bread burrito like rolls pictured were like pancakes and had a potato cream dollup in the middle.  Most everything I had on my plate consisted of potatoes and Loren pretty much had the same thing with the addition of a curry chickpea dish.

We also had a cup of coffee which Loren thought was incredible but I thought was too creamy.  I’m not sure if whole milk was added or half and half but I know it was too much and I won’t order it again.  If you don’t have a problem with milk or cream, go for it! My stomach didn’t appreciate the surprise though…
