After working in the garden all morning, Tuffy P and I were ready for a hearty lunch. We had seen positive words about an new neighbourhood Indian place called Feast of Dilli on the Long Branch Village Facebook page, so we decided to try it.

Feast of Dilli is located in Alderwood at 378 Brown’s Line, just south of Horner on the west side. We were greeted by the owner who was very friendly, and promised us we would enjoy our lunch. The restaurant was clean, with a couple booths and several tables. They didn’t spend a great deal of effort on decor, but the food more than made up for that.

We started with veggie pakoras, which were delicious, just perfect. We also enjoyed veggie biryani, some wonderfully spicy chicken vindaloo, and also that fantastic potato and cauliflower concoction, aloo gobhi, all served up with some very fresh and tasty garlic naan. Portions were generous, prices were reasonable and lunch was excellent all around.

Feast of Dilli has got off to a great start. If they can keep the quality of food up to the standard they set with today’s lunch, we’ll be visiting regularly, and bringing home take-out as well. For those of us living in the Long Branch or Alderwood area, it is conveniently located just up Brown’s Line a few blocks from Lakeshore.
