Service was friendly though a bit slow for the place being empty on a Wednesday night. I thought the food was pretty good but the less-adventurous palates in my party did not appreciate some of the spicing or presentation of some of it. I liked the pacing of our courses and the tea and small deserts on offer. We found the price of our food a bit high but that was less of a concern than the disappointment of part of our group.

This "restaurant" or Cafe or whatever is by crackmacs on 8th st 7th ave, off of the C-train line. It's the kind of ghetto place I wouldn't dare walk past, much less step foot in. So it was a surprise to me when I decided on a whim to check out their Indian food buffet, which is $15 all day. In fact, the whole experience was a surprise - the place was mostly empty but the owner / host was very friendly and welcoming. the Buffet selection is average, but it's pretty good! They use real chicken breast for their butter chicken, and the Chicken Briyani was very good! For such a low price, it's really hard to complain. While I don't think I'll visit again in the near future, it's really not bad for food in a bind.

Personal preference, but obviously not everyone will agree with that. The bigger issue is that they are breaded. The pictures on the website make it look like they are traditional chicken wings, they definitely aren't and there is quite a bit of breading on them. This matters for a few reasons. The first is unless you are talking boneless "wings" a traditional chicken wing is unbreaded. If you serve a dish that is prepared in a non-traditional manner you should probably footnote that. The next issue is caused by the first. When you have a breaded wing that is then spun the breading gets soggy and you essentially end up with a chicken sponge. When your restaurant only functions as a takeout/delivery location that sogginess gets compounded by the breading taking on moisture from the steam. Hot soggy mess. The good? Well the Extra Hot sauce is actually extra hot! Which is great! Most places their hot tastes like ketchup and their "extra hot" tastes like ketchup that was stored near a bottle of Franks Hot Sauce. The sauce was well flavored and a great heat level. Other thing, their blue cheese is just so-so, but their garlic dipping sauce is outstanding. It almost reminds me of the garlic sauce that schwarma places serve. The lady working there was also really nice.
