If you have a loveship with Indian food, you must drop by- especially if you're vegan or vegetarian. Countless options, delicious smells and a totally nice staff. It may look like just a hole in the wall restaurant but it's a total gem.
To be honest, the only reason I say "hole in the wall" is because it's kind of the backside of an eerie, somewhat desolate shopping center. Inside, however, the place is clean, welcoming and decorated with bold colors and textures.
We didn't plan on stopping to eat at all, we hardly ever get into Newport News but the Hubs figured since we were there we might try something I could blog about. Such a smart man. Camera ready and tummy growling, we searched for nearby, well liked places. This was it across the board.
Now, to be honest there is not a TON of vegan options at all, but I love simply curry dishes and am not much for dessert when I am out so it pleased me just fine. My Hubby eat vegetarian sometimes and he had a ton to choose from. All the desserts contain milk, so if your vegan, heads up. The staff was very helpful with this and was sure to warn me when food came what does and does not have any animal products. Very cool.
I got a nice big bowl of basmati rice with curried veggies and it was the perfect balance of spice and hot and yum.

We got some fresh, cold mango juice to go with our hot, spicy meals and it was absolute bliss together. This was suggested from a few reviewers who left comments to pair the juice with your meals and said it was life changing! It was certainly yummy and I would do it again. I am changed.
The meals, like my curry pictured above, came in these beautiful, metal, heavy bowls which added to the feeling of authenticity. Everything they serve is decorative and presented beautifully but that doesn't make it overpriced like most fancy to the eyeball places. There is just a genuine vibe of caring about presentation, manners and service not to mention the absolutely delicious, well prepared meals to choose from.
