Great Indian food in Lowell

Udupi Bhavan is tucked away in a nondescript strip mall on Middlesex Street. Perfect Indian food, hidden in plain sight! At first I found the location odd, until I realized a giant Indian temple is a few yards away. Good sign. I went over the weekend with my husband because he was having sinus troubles. I thought the peppery, tangy basam soup would help. It did. From the first few sips he was looking happier than he had all day. Made with tamarind peppers and accommodating spices, this potent broth does the trick, whether fighting a cold or not. Make sure you order the spring dosas. These crispy lentil crepes filled with potatoes, cheese and greens are perfectly textured. Way better than any eggroll I've come across. Best when dipped in the spicy sauce and yogurt mint (in that order) that comes with. Udupi is the full Bombay blast.

While I certainly don't have it often I think you're mistaken to write it off entirely. It has a unique flavor and texture that is an undeniable treat.
