Varanasi - Azcapotzalco

Mexico City's industrial northside community, Azcapotzalco, is not the first place one would look for Indian food, but those who seek out Varanasi will not be disappointed. Located on the second floor of a mini-mall, this intimate restaurant features a wealth of Indian food from samosas and pakoras to naan, masalas, vindaloos, and much more, all reasonably priced and served with a smile by very professional wait staff. There are plenty of vegatarian as well as meaty options, a natural juices and lassi menu, plus a brand new lunch buffet for $80 MXN. Varanasi also has a popular Mexican-food menu for less adventurous diners. All in all, a real treat for this American expat looking for something different on DF's north side.

The wonderful taste of pure Ghee-Fritten cut, Rasam, fine and sweet dishes was brilliant and reminiscent. I doubt if I had such a wonderful culinary experience in Benaras. The only problem with the restaurant was that I had to reserve the seat... well in advance.
