I figured I'd make the most of my checkup at Stanford Hospital and check out one of my bookmarks in the area, which brought me to Indo for lunch. It was pretty dead when I showed up around 1130, but once noon rolled around, the place was packed.
While prices were a bit on the higher side, they did have a few lunch items that rang up for a bit less. A bit of perusing, indecision, and asking for feedback led me to go with their:
* Roti Prata - Different from other roti I've had in the past, theirs was on the thicker and doughier side, but much, much more enjoyable. For those who've had the thicker variety of Taiwanese scallion pancakes, you'll know exactly what I mean. The yellow dipping sauce was also quite excellent, albeit on the salty side, so dip accordingly.
* Papaya Curried Beef - Braised beef shank in a red curry sauce. Tender, flavorful, and fantastically delicious. But, like the roti sauce, this was also on the saltier side, and I found myself running short of rice the more I kept eating.
I can't entirely decide between a 3.5 and 4 for Indo, but I'll go with the higher for now, with the following caveat: the food is pretty darn tasty, but be prepared for heavy-handed seasoning.
***Accessibility Info***
Venue - A large restaurant split between an outdoor, tented seating area, as well as proper indoor seating. The tables are all accessible, but given the tight positioning of the tables outside in relation to the heat lamps, spacing leaves a little to be desired. It was already a tight squeeze when I showed up and the place was empty: when I left, I had to ask a few people to move in order to squeeze past.
Bathroom - Didn't try them.
