Saasuji

My Saasuji had announced that she would take us for her birthday treat to Saasuji, a Gujarati Thali restaurant. As it is not exactly located on the CG Road, it is a little difficult for non-amdavadis to find it. I thankfully knew where exactly it was, thanks to my tea breaks in Axis bank for which we would come to a tea stall outside Saasuji. The place serves typical Gujju Thali food- 4 veggies, dal, kadhi, 2 sweets, 3 farsans(gujju snacks), chaas, roti, bakhari, puri, bajra rotla, rice, khichdi and papad. Now the reason this place would earn some brownie points from me would be the karele ka sabzi (bitter gourd) that they served. I would have never guessed it is karela unless they would have told. Full of dry fruits and coconut, it did not have any bitterness in it. Sadly though, they don’t serve the same menu every day of the week. So the next time we went, there was no karela sabzi. But this time they compensated by serving Khandvi, chick pea batter strips are steamed and rolled before seasoning, another favourite of mine.

Taste- 8/10

Ambience- 7/10

Service- 7/10

Value for money- 8/10
