Inzai, Chiba, Japan｜INDUS RAY

We found this place on route and thought we will give it a try. The food is truly authentic South Indian. Dosa and veda was excellent. Very friendly and generous staff. Tks for the plant. All in all very tasty food.

I recently moved from Tokyo to Chiba, and was excited to hear that this authentic South Indian restaurant had opened nearby. I’ve visited 5 times so far, and I can’t stop ordering the paratha meal. The paratha is soft but flaky, and perfect for dipping in the three curries you can choose from the daily offerings. Are you wondering about the spice level? I’m used to British curry and love Japanese curry too. Indus’s South Indian curry is just a little spicier than the base “Coco Ichi” level, so you get some good heat, but not too much. If you are worried, order a plain, mango or rose lassi to go with it ;) Lastly, the environment: the tables are clean, seating is flexible (counter or table type) and the staff are very accommodating. I have been catered to in both English and Japanese, and the reception was warm. The “Indus mum” even offered to let my group to taste a new recipe once. It was lovely - I felt like I was back in my mum’s kitchen! The only catch I can think of is no Credit Cards yet, but as business picks up I think this will be sorted out. It’s becoming popular for business lunches and weekend family meals, so I recommend giving the restaurant a quick call before dropping by. Thanks Indus Ray!

So delicious, I licked my fingers! :D
