What to expect
Our Veg Manchurian is vegetable balls in a spicy soy-garlic sauce with a thick gravy, served in a bowl. It is a hearty dish, and it is often ordered with Hakka Noodles to share.
02
Why it works in Ottawa
Ottawa has plenty of Chinese restaurants, but Indo-Chinese food is a different thing: bolder, saucier and spicier. Veg Manchurian is the dish that introduces most people to it. If you are ordering for a group, it is the dish that tends to disappear first.
03
Before you order
Veg Manchurian is $14.99 CAD on our menu.
- It comes in a thick gravy, so it works well with noodles or rice.
- Order it with Hakka Noodles for the classic combination.
- Tell the team if you want it less spicy.
04
What to order with it
It is saucy and salty, so it pairs well with noodles, and something fizzy and tangy to cut through it.
- Hakka Noodles, $14.99
- Noodle Spring Rolls (x2), $9.99
- Masala Soda, $5.99
05
When it hits the spot
It is a good order when:
