What people say, in short
A purely vegetarian Burmese restaurant in Indiranagar that people consistently recommend, with the khow suey, samosa soup, lotus stem chips and desserts like saffron cheesecake singled out repeatedly. Even avowed non-vegetarians say it is worth it, and one warns to be ready for a long wait outside. It serves no meat at all; adventurous eaters point to the tohu, jackfruit and mock-meat dishes. One person found the tea leaf salad too pricey for the taste, and one regular felt a festival thali fell short.
