Indian craftmanship when it comes to serving solid, tasty and reasonable priced dishes by this family run restaurant. It is higly popular amongst the locals. Peak time is around 16 - 18. Orders are taken at the counter, then you help your self finding a table and then wait and get astonished by the staff's orientation and memory abilities! Sometimes they call you up to pick up the food other times they serve you at the table, depending on the crowd I guess. They also serve Indian beer.
