How to Eat Like a Hindu God in New York City 😯

The Ganesha Temple in Queens, New York, has been a cultural hub for Hindus in the United States since the 1970s. But this temple isn't just dedicated to religious practice. The canteen in the temple's basement is a bonafide restaurant, serving up more than 100 traditional vegetarian Indian dishes. What started as a kitchen to prepare food offerings to the gods has become a place for Hindus and non-Hindus alike to chow down on some of the most authentic South Indian food in New York City.

Food is a gift of God given to all creatures for the purposes of life’s nurture, sharing, and celebration.

If the Hindus ever decided to evangelise I think dosa would be a potent weapon in their arsenal. Lol
