"If you’re going to brave downtown Santa Monica to see a movie, the good news is that you can eat at Tumbi. The modern Indian spot on Santa Monica Blvd. is only a block from The Promenade, but feels a world away from the manic chaos. The cheese dosa, patiala chicken, and toothfish curry are some of our favorites, but don’t leave without getting the saffron panna cotta either." - brant cox
