Baby Shower...over

This was taken at the shower. I can't believe the Baby Shower is over. I thought the event went very well. No major issues. I was happy with everything. Thanks to everyone who came. Thanks to everyone who helped out. I really meant it...we couldn't have done it without you. A special thanks to Premal and Deesh from me personally. Because of you guys I had no stress and was able to stay clam and cool all evening. All that planning and preperation is now done. What will we do with our time now? It actually feels nice to relax after the big event. Looking forward to a weekend of doing nothing :)

Tibetan Food

Yesterday was a friend of ours 30th birthday. Her husband had arranged all of us to surprise her at a restaurant. He selected a Tibetan restaurant. It was first time I had this kind of food. We went to a place called Rangzen Tibet in Cambridge. So what did I think?

Pros:

-Lots of vegetarian options. See menu here. This is always a big plus in my book. There is a whole section for veggies and almost any other dish can be made vegetarian. I hate when a restaurant has only 1 or 2 options for people like me.

-Their food has a lot of Indian hint to it. I like Indian food so this was another plus. In fact my order, Momo dumplings, was served with our famous 'Green Chutney' and 'Tomato Chutney' and a soup that tasted very much like daal. Premal's order(Shago Meto Chumma) looked just like our cauliflower and potato saak. That was served with white rice and a side salad made of peices of apples, tomatoes and best of all mangos mixed with Italian dressing. There was even Mango lassi on the menu.

-Price was not bad. It was not as cheap as taco bell of course, but not as expensive as Indian food either. Cost was reasonable.

Cons:

-Yes, there was lots of Indian hint to the food, but the taste was little bland. Nothing was spicy it was very much in need of some salt and chilli masala. My dish was still okay with the chutney, but Premal's had no hope without the hot sauce. Though he managed to make it taste decent.

-Small place. It was a very small restaurant that fit maybe 35 people max. If it was just 2 of us it would have been fine, but we were a big group and took up most of the tables there.

-Location was very shady. It was in an alley with very little lighting and strange people. Yes, we were almost in Boston so it is little expected, but I would not feel safe walking down that street by myself at night.

Overall:

So would I go there again??....answer would be 'no'. I don't think I would ever crave that kind of food and it isn't worth going. But I'm glad to have tired it at least.
