It's no surprise to anyone that Al and I are big foodies. We love to visit new places and try all types of cuisines but we always come back to Indian food as our favorites. When we lived in CT, we would have to travel about an hour to NYC to get some good South Indian vegetarian food, but in Austin, we only have to drive 15 minutes to
Madras Pavilion. Yay! Another reason to love Austin!

We frequent the weekend brunch buffet at Madras Pavilion and even though, everything is vegetarian, it is mouth-watering and righteous. I opt to focus on the breakfast part of the meal, which includes idlis (rice cakes), vadas (deep fried lentil rings), dosas (crispy rice crepes) with dipping condiments of sambar (spiced vegetable curry) and chutney (spicy coconut puree).
But there are also many typical lunch or dinner dishes to choose from, such as bhindi curries, Hyderabadi biryanis and even Indo-Chinese Hakka noodles. Last but not least, they have some sort of dessert to put out any fires. This time we got gulam jamuns and vermicelli payasam.
