Dinner Special #3 at India Sweets & Spices, $6.99
This plate might not be a looker, but it’s sure not lacking in personality. It’s delish and quite the bang for your buck if you’re in need of some major belly filling. Take it to go, or grab a seat inside to soak up the Bollywood movie of the day. The special includes two sides, a samosa, naan bread, and a mango drink. On your way out be sure to scope the market next door, which is stockpiled with incense, bulk spices, and even jewelry. Talk about a full-service pit stop!
