N.Y. Dosas

Tips

• The Special Pondicherry Dosa and a Samosa is a good place to start, though you should try it all. Just be prepared to wait on line. It is a good idea to go a little ahead or after the main lunch rush.

• Filling + cheap $5 lunch in the village. Masala Dosa w/ coconut chutney and a side dish (hot soup when I went!). Eat in WashSqrPark + watch seasoned chess players hustle oncoming tourists. Bliss.

• This entirely vegan cart is beloved by all in the Village. Try the vegan drumsticks or the uthappam, a pizza-like offering.

• The Pondicherry dosa might be my favorite NY street cart food. You don't need to wait in line to get samosas, though, so do that if the line's too long.

• Known simply as The Dosa Cart. Thiru who prepares the food is just wonderful, serving up each meal with a smile. Get the masala dosa with coconut chutney and devour it on a bench in Washington Square.
