I have only “had” Kona once before, from a street vendor during the plaza art fair (I know, not the same). Dana and I went and had some great things! I got the rainbow sushi roll (so pretty!) and she got the veggie flatbread. Both were delicious. I really liked the atmosphere of the restaurant too, and they have a great happy hour. If you get there at the right time you can even snag a seat by the garage door style windows, which would be perfect for people watching!
I gave Indian food another shot. And yes, I know that picture doesn’t give it justice, but lunch at Ruchi’s was an experience for our class. We ended up sampling quite a few things since we went during the lunch buffet. Some of the favorites included the mint chutney sauce, Gobi Palak which is cauliflower cooked in a creamy spinach sauce, and the spicy catfish. They also had mango lassi to drink and mango ice cream. For a buffet, they had quite a few options but it was a little pricey (like most buffets tend to be).
Honestly, I couldn’t tell a big difference between the pho at Vietnam Cafe and the pho at Pho 97. We might have been in a safer part of town at the Vietnam cafe, however. Pho is simply a vietnamese chicken noodle soup that I have recently discovered and now crave.
