I recommend this new restaurant and take out in Dartmouth Crossing. My wife and I went there tonight and met and talked with one of the owners (Amanda). The food was excellent – hot, well layed out, lots of variety, displayed well, ambience great (nice jazz piano music in background). The vegetables and meat were so obviously fresh and the sauces on several dishes outstanding. On the way home we agreed its the best southern asian food we have had in years. Check it out – it’s special.
