Re: Sunnyvale Restaurant Recommendations

[Guest guest]

I have not tried it since going GF but I've heard Saravana Bhavan

(Vegetarian Indian) does have GF options but I've avoided going there so

far because I've found the servers have very little English so I've been

worried that something would get lost in the translation. I'm planning

to go with some of my Indian co-workers who said they'll make sure the

server understands my restrictions so I can eat safely - can't wait! My

co-workers believe they make traditional dosas which should be safe and

I used to love their dosas before going GF.

Country Gourmet is across the street (both are basically at the corner

of Fremont/) and I have been there once since going GF - when

ordering, tell the person at the counter you cannot have gluten- I

recall they had a binder which listed ingredients and they will also

talk to the chef if necessary.

If you're able to drive up to El Camino (a little over 1 mile north),

there is a Fresh Choice at El Camino and Grape (Grape is in between

and Bernardo) and Kabul (Afghani) is at El Camino and

Hollenbeck/Pastoria- between and Mathilda/Sunnyvale-Saratoga - my

favorite- we usually split an order of chicken kebabs w/ no bread plus

sides of their spinach and pumpkin dishes. Also, PF Changs is at El

Camino and Mathilda/Sunnyvale-Saratoga.

Hi -

I haven't looked for an Indian Triumph card - I have only used a card

once when on vacation in Mexico - I should look into that -I'm sure

there are Indian versions somewhere. I guess mentally I always thought

of the cards as coming in handy only when traveling but that's silly

thinking, huh since I'm missing out on dosas!
