"Namaste, if you glorify an Indian, and so it is refreshed to Hindi. Tuma kaise ho? Accha. Well, it's coming back and you already have the sympathy on his side. Why do I start? I want to rate the Taj Mahal. Not the big mausoleum in Uttar Pradesh India, no, but the restaurant in Stahnsdorf. From Potsdam, where I had my quarters, it was only about 6 km away in the Potsdamer Allee. About 100 meters from Taj Mahal is the beautiful looking China Restaurant Kaiser Pagode. I've often eaten Chinese and cooked for me, but never Indian. So I was very excited about it. Before Taj Mahal there is a large parking lot and a terrace. It wasn't really warm to sit outside. So come to the restaurant, the above mentioned greeting formulas I had learned before. Mr. Trideep Singh, with white turban and noise bar, greeted us kindly, gave us a nice place and showed us where the buffet is located. His wife stood in her costume Salwar Kameez behind the vault, which looked like an island on an aircraft carrier. The floor is nicely tiled and the walls are kept in a warm orange tone. There are pictures of Indian beauties and a picture of Taj Mahal. Since children and young people probably come to dinner with parents, pictures from Kamasutra were omitted. The buffet is located in the side area and was dressed in 10 heated stainless steel dishes. On the wall there was also a table showing the dishes. In front of the bowls there were salads and vegetables, as well as a kind of thin crunchy bread and a sweet dessert. In the background, quiet music played so that one felt kidnapped to India. Three times I visited the buffet and tried the delicious dishes that were all very good, but not too spicy. For all foods you can take long-grained Basmati rice or potatoes a la Bombay. I liked the mushrooms in figs, the dice lamb and pig. Until the fish, who had experienced better times, dried out and tasted “woody”, I liked the delicious dishes very well. The buffet costs per person lukewarm € 6.90 and you could really eat rich. But I stayed back when I had the “wide” way to Hamburg before me. I can definitely recommend this restaurant because the price-performance ratio is unbeatably good, the dishes are pleasantly seasoned and you can eat rich for little money. Chef and chef are very friendly and helpful in explaining the dishes. Alavida says goodbye and I mean literally."
