THE ANGLO INDIAN RECREATIONAL CLUB
CELEBRATES INTERNATIONAL ANGLO INDIAN DAY
AUGUST 3rd 2019
AT
THE NEW INDIA BUFFET, BAR & RESTAURANT
901 Broadway, Vancouver
Our Club usually celebrates International Anglo Indian Day at a picnic, but this year we did something a little different. Since we weren't able to find a suitable outdoor venue on this very busy long weekend in August we met for lunch instead at the New India Restaurant in Vancouver.
Over spicy samosa and pakora snacks and glasses of iced fruit juice we caught up with each other's news and views—but it wasn't too long before the restaurant's lavish buffet beckoned: fish masla, prawn curry, egg curry, chilli chicken, lamb biriyani, dal makhani, keema curry, seekh kebabs, puffy kulchas and puris, and in the vegetarian section, glistening eggplant, aloo saag, and palak paneer among a host of other palate pleasing choices.
Plates loaded with mouth-watering helpings, we tucked in...but were careful to leave enough room for India's most well loved desserts including gulab jamuns in syrup, curly orange-coloured jalebis, creamy burfi, sooji halwa and much more! A selection of jello puddings and custards awaited those with more conservative tastes.
At $19.99 the meal was a steal! Take a look at their menu here.
