South Indian Frenzy

Naivedyam is one of the very few Indian restaurants at a budget, that make you go " wah"   
after the dining experience!

I went to the Naivedyam restaurant at Hauz Khas Village, a couple of days back.It is situated right in front of the village, inside a small alley.

Honestly,the first thing that I had made the restaurant out to be was a shani mandir, a place where my mum used to take me forcibly every saturday!Thats courtesy the black cow sculpture that sits at the entrance surrounded by lots of small diyas. If you have ever been to a temple on a Saturday, you will know what I am talking about.

So as I went inside, I found the interiors to be reminiscent of traditional South Indian architecture. And the lovely incense and the carnatic music in the background set tone for the evening. Soon enough,I began to feel relaxed in the whole atmosphere.

But you know the thing that completely stood out for me? It was the hospitality and the food. As soon as me and my friend sat down, within a minute the waiter came with the water and greeted us with a big smile. As soon as we got settled in our seats, we were brought "rassam" the traditional South Indian drink and papadam. The rassam has become my favourite drink after that!

We ordered a masala dosa and lemon rice, and both were simply fantastic! I honestly hadn't had such good South Indian food before! 

Such good food, great authentic decor, marvelous service..and the price? Just 290 Rs. for the both of us!

You must try Naivedyam at Hauz Khas Village! You will automatically WANT to leave a tip rather than be OBLIGATED to do it!
