Andhra Bhavan review: ‘My friend has agonised over whether to tell me about this new South Indian gem with the best dosas in Dublin’
Our critic is impressed by a fantastic restaurant spicing things up – and she is not the only one...
Andhra Bhavan on Dublin's Marlborough Street
A friend who walks along Marlborough Street every day tells me she’s discovered a brilliant new South Indian restaurant. She’s got into the habit of dropping in for a breakfast dosa after she’s dropped her children off at their creche nearby, or for a thali in the afternoon before she collects them. She’s been for dinner too. I get the sense she’s agonised over whether to share this information with me.
I book for lunch one Sunday but the person in whose name I’ve made the reservation has missed the email asking him to confirm (he had one job), and as we’re on our way across town, he’s getting calls from a number he doesn’t recognise. He doesn’t answer. By the time we realise who’s calling, the number is constantly busy and stress levels are rising as we get closer to 2pm.
