It's been a while since I promised to write about my favorite vegetarian-friendly restaurants in Luxembourg. Well, it turned out it isn't as easy to take enticing pictures of food as I thought ("that looked so much better in reality"). Luckily, yesterday I had another chance when one of my brothers and his girlfriend came to visit me and insisted that we go to the Star of Asia (they're not vegetarians, BTW)

The Indian restaurant Star of Asia is located right in the city center of Luxembourg (19, rue des Capucins, close to the parking "Place du Théâtre"). As you can see on the menu on their website, they have more than a dozen vegetarian dishes.

Here are some we had yesterday:

Mutter Paneer (44): Cottage cheese and green peas in curry sauce

Bhagara Baigan (50): Aubergines prepared in a special rich and spicy sauce. My non-vegetarian brother's all-time-favorite Indian dish. Mine, too. Must be genetic.

Aloo Burtha (51): Potatoes mashed and prepared with rich spices. Watch out for the super-spicy tiny brown chilies... seriously!

Aloo Gobi (60): Fresh cauliflower gently cooked with potatoes. I generally don't like cauliflower, but this dish is amazing.

Chili Naan (80): Freshly baked in a clay oven. I'm getting hungry again!

Big thanks to everyone who went with me for their patience while I snapped the photos and to everyone at the Star of Asia, too.

Shyam Montiani, owner of the Star of Asia and one of the genuinely friendliest persons I've ever met.
