has anyone been to the apparently new indian place on allen (namaste?) just south of the 210?
I think it’s on Hill? Neighbors went recently, said the grocery options were decent, but their to-go order was messed up and the food wasn’t very spicy. Said they would go back after opening jitters ironed out - said it felt like the chaos when Bhanu opened and think it will get better. Oh, and I think they said the place doesn’t serve any meat, but I might have misheard.
Love the enthusiasm in your response: should we take that as a resounding “meh”?
I was just answering the question. Nothing more, nothing less.

Have you eaten there? Would you recommend eating there?
I enjoyed it.
The vada pao reminds me of a vegetarian KFC Chicken Little, and the sev puri is strangely addictive. The entire menu is a smorgasbord of Indian street fare delights.
Not a place I’d want to eat at everyday, or even regularly, but every once in a while it’s a great change of pace.

Was in the area to buy something I found on Craiglist, and I thought I’d visit a friend for lunch while I was there. Went to Bone Kettle, based on some of the recent posts.
Did other posts mention how gigantic the food potions are??? I should’ve put a chopstick in centrally the pic for scale, but that bowl probably could’ve fed 1.5 people (so the food ends up being a good value, despite the seemingly high price).
Truth be told, the brisket didn’t really add much to the dish. I wouldn’t have minded the brisket being fattier (despite it being listed as “fatty” on the menu), more thinly sliced, and more tender.
However, all the rest of the stuff was great. Clean and light-tasting but very filling. Tasted a bit of my friend’s broth. Decently flavorful w/o being a salt or fat bomb. Would happily return to the restaurant again.
Warning: the restaurant closes btw lunch and dinner.
Just like an attorney.

You sound like Kevin Costner doing Jim Garrison.
finally tried it for lunch today. max seating of about 24. asians were parking in back and coming in through the kitchen while the non-asian customers were coming in the front door. (there is no judgement being made here.)
their basic HCR (#6) is a mix of white/dark meat, a bowl shaped mound of chicken rice and chili-garlic & ginger scallion sauces. (all white/all dark meat orders are $1 extra, as is the fried chicken version which i will have to go back and try) and also included in a small container of hot chicken broth. maybe it was for soaking your fingers before a manicure, but i chose to sip mine.
sweet soy sauce is available but it’s DIY from a small stand to the right of the cashier.
for those near pasadena not having the inclination to contact tasty food to guarantee that servings will be available and then travel down to rosemead, you can pay roughly an extra $1 and get your HCR fix taken care of at cluck2go. if i was equidistant between the two, i might choose tasty food. but if you chose cluck2go, i’d understand. their chicken was moist and tender and the rice was pretty good and together, topped with the sweet soy, chiii-garlic & scallion ginger sauces it made a satisfying gestalt.

check out Vallarta for lunch sometime. The pork ribs in green chili are pretty fantastic and they make all their own chips in house with a huge salsa bar.
