Little India Lahug - Cebu

Finding the location of JY Find Place was not difficult, but locating it near Salinas Drive in the SSY Business Center proved to be a challenge. Despite asking several locals for directions, none were familiar with the restaurant. After a considerable walk, I finally reached the seafront part of the SSY Business Center, which is essentially a large parking lot with shops along the left and rear side. Little India is located on the left corner, and upon entering on the ground floor, stairs lead up to the first floor where the dining area is situated. The menu offers a variety of main dishes ranging from traditional thali to dosas and idlis. They are planning to introduce a South Indian thali in the future. I opted for the vegan North Indian thali, which included small portions of chana masala, yellow dhal, masala potatoes, rice, a salad, and papad. The meal was satisfying and surprisingly affordable.

This restaurant specializes in North Indian cuisine with a focus on vegetarian dishes. They offer a variety of vegan options, clearly labeled as such, as well as unique rice dishes. The food is tasty and portion sizes are generous, but I found it to be lacking in spiciness and a bit too heavy on the salt and cumin. Delivery service was punctual.

The Indian cuisine at this restaurant is flavorful and made with fresh ingredients. The service is exceptional and they offer a nice variety of vegan dishes clearly marked on the menu. Even though we arrived just 15 minutes before closing, the staff was still very hospitable and didn't make us feel rushed at all.

The food was delicious. We ordered delivery and the portions were generous and full of flavor. While not very spicy for Indian cuisine, it was still excellent.
