After years of reading the hype and missing the Dosa guy of Washington Square Park (located right in front of the park, Sullivan St. and W 4th St) I finally had my lunch date with him today and it was spectacular. As expected, he knew what Jain meant and both his Sambar and Chutney were Jain. Also, the dosa was 100% vegan and he even sprinkled on this delicious hot powder on my dosa.

But what I didn’t expect was a tofu-drumstick with a sugarcane instead of a stick in the middle. The chewy and absolutely flavorful savory treat was a surprise I had not expected. Needlessly to say, the $6.75 for a can of Iced Tea, a plain spicy vegan Dosa, and a single drumstick with the side of chutney and sambar was by far the best lunch I’ve had in quite some time.

Catch him tomorrow if you can. I hope to visit again soon.
