First I have to say that we don’t generally even like restaurants. Food cooked at home is usually better. The exception for us is South Indian Vegetarian. The three of us have debated about whether it’s worth driving 4 hours to Queens for our favorite South Indian at Dosa Hutt. We never fail to miss this if we’re in the vicinity of New York. So you can imagine my excitement when I learned that a South Indian Vegatarian place, Dosa Temple, had opened up nearby on Somerville Avenue right across from Market Basket (they also have a location in Ashland, in the strip mall that is the former home of Udupi Bhavan, another excellent South Indian Veg restaurant now located in Shrewsbury and Lowell.

The decor was reminiscent of a south indian place we visited in Agra, the service excellent and pleasant, and the food fresh, varied, and very good. We’ll be back soon — so happy that they’ve come to Somerville.
