It's on the menu for a total of three weeks, and you bet I'm there every week when it is.

It's just fresh, simple ingredients that create a flavor palette like no other.

I've come up with a simple and fool proof recipe that you can enjoy every now and then even if you're watching your waistline. These crispy veggie pakoras are light, crisp and full of flavor.
