General Info
No, it's not the name of the Spice Girls' US reunion tour. Just tell me what you want, what you really, really want. If you wanna be my go-to, you gotta get with my diet. To be perfectly honest, I had pretty low expectations about this isolated middle-of-Market spot. Turnover has been high since the space doesn't seem convenient to anyone without a broken shopping cart. It was Chris Daly's Buck Tavern for a couple of years and then a Japanese restaurant called Shido for the previous three years. When I saw the familiar generic banner highlighting familiar generic Indian dishes and the inevitable lunch buffet, I just dismissed it until I developed a severe hankering for something spicy and Indian one evening after a workout. When I walked in, the server didn't sing the opening lyrics to "Wannabe". He was more Posh than Scary if you know what I mean. I did a quick perusal of the menu and had my eye on the $14 Cauliflower Roast, which sounded like the healthiest of a varied lot. It was an intriguing dish of lightly roasted cauliflower florets mixed with a creamy, spicy sauce called lababdar masala and a soft blend of rice and lentils called khichdi (photo: bit.ly/2SUcc9Y). It was definitely comforting with a bit of a kick. It was also just ranked #55 on 7x7's 100 Best Dishes in San Francisco. A deeper look at their menu reveals some novel techniques like charring yogurt, using Meyer lemons on their tandoori shrimp, and making curry with a cheese omelet. Yep, I should come back again.
