Masala
Masala is a lovely place to get Indian and Nepali food. We tried it for the first time tonight and it was also my first time having food from Nepal. I tried the Kwatti which is a bean soup and Moo Moo Cha, vegetable dumplings. I also got my favorite Indian appetizer, Lamb Samosas.
My husband tried the Nepali Thali. He’s had Indian Thali before… a series of little veggie dishes. This one he ordered medium spice and it was a bit too spicy for him. Just note the spice level you request… if you don’t like things too spicy, go mild!
The masala tea was perfect with the spicy food. One of our guests commented the mango lassi was very refreshing.
One more thing I tried for the first time was the papadam. It’s a light crisp flatbread almost like a cracker… made of chickpeas. It was so delicious on it’s own or dipped in the sauces/chutneys… my favorite being the tamarind based one.
I will definitely return to this restaurant when I come to Tufts. Next time I will have their buffet so I can really explore!
