Where to Try Indian Thalis Around D.C. - Eater DC

"At this vegetarian spot in College Park, the thalis lean South Indian with a number of dishes not easily found in the area. That includes avial (assorted vegetables in a mild coconut based sauce), kootu, and more. Known for its assortment of dosas, it’s also one of the few places in the area to offer the crisp, rice pancakes on a thali. The Woodlands Special gives you a choice of a dosa or an uttapam (vegetable pancake), medu vada (lentil donut) or idly (steamed rice cake) with coconut chutney, and spicy tamarind and lentil sambar for dipping." - Aparna Krishnamoorthy
