Dosa King, Bangkok (20th January 2014)


Lee's latest Bangkok curry saw him and Emma return to the Nana District (Indian District) to visit the Vegetarian Dosa King.

With too much choice on the menu, Lee and Emma decided to share a selection of food items: veg samosa, Dosa Thali and Punjabi Thali. The food included Idli Dosa, Vada Dosa, veg curry, potato curry, spicy veg curry soup, dhall, samosa with popodoms, rice, nan and chutneys. Then an indian desert and a donut to finish.

All in all very nice - the Idli dosa was light and slightly sweet, the dhall full of flavour and the soup left Lee with a light sweat on his brow from the spice.

Lovely place for an inexpensive lunch

Bawarch Indian Restaurant, Bangkok (19th January 2014)


Tonight Lee and Emma ate at the Bawarch Indian restaurant - I say "tonight" however it is 2:47am in Bangkok! As we ordered the waiter said we'd be the last covers of the night and over the next half hour turned away 6 or 7 people - a popular place for early hours curry - or more likely the only one still open that I saw!

Lee ordered Vegetable Tawa Massala with rice and nan and a Vegetable Pakora starter. Emma ordered Paneer Tawa Massala

Popodoms arrived with mint sauce, pickled shallots and tamarind chutney - all packed a punch!

The mixed veg pakora included onions, potato and cauliflower, all served in a light, slightly spicy batter with a spice topping that bought out the sweetness of the batter - very enjoyable.

The mains were, as expected, very similar as based in same sauce - a slightly creamy tomato based gravy. Full of flavour, a bit on the hot side for Emma, but just the ticket after watching football and drinking in the bars of Nana.

If you want a curry in the early hours in this district of Bangkok, its the place to go!
