One of the things I really love about the new menu at Naanolicious is a section where you can pick your protein and your sauce and create your own curry. I absolutely love how the paneer is done - often perfectly grilled on the outside and soft on the inside - so I had that with the lababdar sauce. This was a creamy, tomato-based sauce with onions, not as rich as a butter sauce with slightly more kick. The delicate flavour of the paneer worked well with the spice of the sauce, much of which was mixed with the side of saffron rice.

Paneer with Lababdar Sauce at Naanolicious
Breakfast for Lunch: Steak and Eggs at Next Act
The peace group with which I am involved decided to get together for lunch after a picket on a recent Saturday afternoon, and The Next Act was nearby and convenient - and, lucky for us, the big table at the back was available. I had steak and eggs, as the brunch menu was still in effect. The steak was tender and juicy, with the eggs perfectly done and a heaping order of the seasoned hash browns. Satisfying, indeed.
Tomato Basil Soup at Zocalo
As I hunkered down in Zocalo one chilly afternoon to get some work done, I decided to warm up with a bowl of tomato basil soup. This soup made me chuckle a little, as it made me rcall the "Soup Nazi" from Seinfeld (I think one of the characters was just crazy about the "tomato bisque"). Smooth and creamy, the soup had a slight tang to the aftertaste and was overall quite pleasant.

Just Desserts: Tiramisu at Leva Cafe
As my meeting at Leva Cafe continued, I needed more coffee and a dessert. I ordered another Americano, and finally tried the tiramisu in a cup. The top layer was like a heavy whipped topping, with a rich, cream cheese underneath. The bottom layer, my favourite, was liquor-soaked cake. It was not heavy, but still rich. The coffee helped cut the sweetness. This is not something I would order every day, but is definitely another one of Leva's excellent desserts.
