    This place serves Indo-Chinese, a hyper-local cuisine of Western India which is basically Chinese food made spicier. South Asians order familiar Hakka noodles, chili chicken, or American chop suey, mainly for the nostalgia factor. With the growing awareness and popularity of its unique flavors, Chinese Dhaba now has four locations that are mainly in food-court style settings. less...

    Decatur is an Indian-food paradise, and while many neighboring restaurants battle to be the Raj, no restaurant creates more exciting and satisfying Indian fare than UDIPI CAFE. Thali plates (a variety of dishes served in small, stainless-steel bowls neatly arranged on a round platter) for the indecisive, addictive coconut rice with shreds of chewy coconut, complex chutneys, and mouth-watering channa batura (a balloonlike bread served alongside a curry of plump chickpeas) offer plenty of flavorful options at dirt-cheap prices. less...

    A vegetarian restaurant (where you won’t miss the meat), MADRAS SARAVANA BHAVAN is so popular that owner Narenda Patel opened a meat-serving restaurant at the opposite end of the shopping center in which MSB is located. The dosai, forearm-length rice-flour pancakes filled with spicy potatoes and other seasoned veggies, are the favorite here. In fact, the dosai get so huge you can order one that literally fills the table. We urge you to branch out and experiment with other dishes, including any of the curries (try the one made with eggplant) or the thali plate, which gives you a sampling of many dishes. The restaurant is currently undergoing renovations but will re-open at the end of this month. less...

    We keep looking, but, year after year, nothing comes really close to Narenda Patel’s MADRAS SARAVANA BHAVAN. There isn’t a thing on the South Indian vegetarian menu we wouldn’t recommend. Even something as simple as crunchy puries into which you spoon some mint sauce is heavenly.more...
    We keep looking, but, year after year, nothing comes really close to Narenda Patel’s MADRAS SARAVANA BHAVAN. There isn’t a thing on the South Indian vegetarian menu we wouldn’t recommend. Even something as simple as crunchy puries into which you spoon some mint sauce is heavenly. Everyone loves the dosai — huge rice-flour crepes available with a variety of stuffings. A thali meal allows you to sample a number of dishes. We suggest you let yourself go crazy with the condiments and sauces to experience the real breadth of this cuisine. Go early or wait long. less...
