Haandi Udupi is an Indian restaurant in the food court of Nairobi's Westgate Mall. I had never visited a Kenyan food court before. As soon as we arrived, waiters from each of the food court restaurants raced over to us and handed us about 10 laminated menus. We were in it for the Indian food, and Haandi Udupi had a very extensive menu. Northern Indian, Southern Indian, Indian that I'd never heard of. Five pages of it, all with their authentic names and no English translations. It overwhelmed me and all I could remember was that paneer is tofu-like cheese. Quinn and I both settled for vegetable dishes because we thought it would be safer to experiment with veggies than meat.

The food was served on tidy white plates, and I was in Indian food heaven.
