Mandap at 434-6 Rockdale offers a great buffet at $12.90.
I spoke to the owner and he has taken authenticity to a fine art.
All furnishings were from India from the carpet up to the ceiling fabric.
I was impressed at his integrity in aiming for an authentic ambiance.
His vegetarian dishes -2 were excellent yesterday.
His Naans were done to perfection.
His rasagullas were divine mouth watering desserts.
I did not eat his rice [passe] or his meat dishes.
they have a dinner buffet at $19.90 which is more expensive but has more to offer.
[I might not be testing this.
As i am retired, I need to conserve my resources and live within my pension.]
They also have an Indian astrologer who gives free astrological advice on friday evenings.
I previously reviewed Ambis and got slammed by the regular ozbargainers who seem to swoop on newbies trying to give back to ozbargain and discredit them.
because I have seen good Indian restaurants fail for lack of support, I try to publicise them when I find them good. In this way we support better restaurateurs and improve the quality of life of all those who care about fine dining and Indian culture.
mm I love indian food and Ambi's has always been a great night out for my partner and me.
Will make an effort to try Mandap, thanks for the post!
