Karma, Ceylonta & Haveli's

Little India in Ottawa

2007 10 22..... Karma Karma is gone, closed and presumably the cook has gone somewhere else...

2007 08 09....

Yes, I have been to Karma Karma on Bank Street and it is OK... that's a big OK.... very limited stuff, but the taste is good... the prices are high... but they get the lunch crowd and the chef is not that friendly till you get to know him.... service is sporadic and if you consider it is a fast food indian type place,.... well it's kinda expensive... , but the food taste good. The eggplant, cauliflower, spinach (sag), and beef and lamb curries are good... the nans are good... the tandooris...so so....? Did not look great.... The pickle... pretty bad... what else do you need to know before you try... it ain't paradise in India... but it's not bad... try Moni Mahal on Laurier if you want variety in buffet... and Haveli's for traditional chef from India type cooking...

and there is a lot more coming....

And look on this site for Goan stuff.....

Celyonta: was not impressed.... portions too huge for tradition... not really that great.... Lived in Indian during teenage years for 8 years... so I know! Better in good places in Toronto.....


Piece Under Construction.

Am working on a piece for East Indian Restaurants in Ottawa..... and this would include Indian, Pakistani, Bangla Deshi, Sri Lankan, Goan, South Indian… blah blah blah… Indian sub-continent or East Asian…. Whatever…

Rather than do individual pieces on each restaurant and you can go to ottawafoodies.com for info on that... I think it is more appropriate here to do more generic pieces.

And since I lived in India for all of and more of my teenage years... I would consider myself an expert in this area...

so hope you guys are looking forward to it...

Any feedback.... Try and leave a name, I generally ignore anonymous feedback…..
