Sunday dinner buffet for $9.95! Woo! I was really excited for this. The service was very attentive, kept refilling my water glass even when I was holding the it. The selection was sparse but I guess that is to be expected in New Orleans (not really known for its Indian cuisine) and a dinner buffet under $10. The butter chicken resembled chicken tikka masala enough so I was satisfied. I was sad that there were no samosas, but the jasmine rice was fluffy and the naan was hot and soft. I also fell in love with this hot sauce that I had never noticed before. The rice pudding was ok and the mango ice cream was delicious!
