Editorial Review of Sukhadia's

If you're already full from dinner, you'll still find it easy to stop by this house of handmade sweets nestled among Devon's plethora of Indian eateries. Go against your better full-belly judgment and indulge in one of Sukhadia's dozens of desserts.

Ras malai, a cheese patty soaked in creamy milk and garnished with saffron and pistachios, has a pleasant texture and subtly sweet taste. You'll probably see it offered at most Indian restaurants, but nowhere is it as fresh as you'll find here. For a richer taste, sample the jalebi, a deep fried cookie (that almost looks like a mini funnel cake) saturated in honey and flavored with a hint of rose. Catering to its international fan base, Sukhadia's ships its desserts all over the country and to such far-off places as the United Kingdom and the Caribbean Islands.

While Sukhadia's specialties are best suited for saccharine lovers, don't overlook the selection of meals. Take a culinary trip around the country by trying one of each of the inexpensive dishes ($2-$5) featuring the cuisines of Northern and Southern India as well as the Punjab and Gujarat regions. Make sure to grab the Punjabi samosa chat, a samosa covered with a tamarind, cilantro, jalapeno and ginger sauce, yogurt, fluffy rice and noodles made from chickpea flour.
