We picked up one of my favorite restaurant meals last night after a long day of work and necessary errands with mom.
Malvani food FTW: Fried Bombil, Chicken Rassa, chapatis, rice, potato bhaji, and an incongruous order of Palak Paneer because they make the best version I have ever eaten anywhere.
My dad “discovered” the place right after they opened a few decades ago, and has taken everyone we know there over the years; the owner and staff are understandably very fond of him. So pickup was a bit long as they inquired after him, went to chat with my mom in the car, tried (without success) to give us several things we didn’t order, wanted to know how long I’m in town and when I’m coming back to have a meal in-house, and so on. Very sweet, and heartwarming for dad who hasn’t been there in person since before the pandemic.
