Eat This: Vegetables Samosa at Everest Café & Bar

If you haven’t tried the Vegetables Samosa at Everest Café & Bar, it’s time to check your priorities. Deep golden-brown pyramids of house-made pastry are filled with velvety smashed potatoes studded with peas and onion and fragrant with coriander. The crunchy, tender pockets are perfectly seasoned and delightful on their own, but the accompanying red tamarind sauce adds a sweet, tangy highlight.
