Hindu Temple Canteen

South Indian restaurant · Flushing

"Founded in 1993 and located in the basement of Flushing’s Ganesh temple, this place serves a strictly vegetarian menu of South Indian dishes. That means multiple varieties of dosa, plus uttapam with a choice of stuffings, and idli in several formats. There are vegetable curries and rices, too, in a family-friendly setting. Remove your shoes to visit the Hindu temple upstairs, where everyone is welcomed." - Robert Sietsema, Nadia Chaudhury
