Hello Thaths, Avatars is my favorite restaurant in the Bay Area. I'll make a trip to Sausalito especially to eat there. The food is wonderful, they call it Marindian :-) The enchiladas are my favorite, covered in a tamarind and yoghurt sauce. A wonderful blend of Mexican/Indian food. You can sit close to the kitchen and watch them cook. And the owner, Ashok is a great host. He will remember your name the next time you visit and what you ate and recommend something off menu if needed to cater for dietary needs. I'll be back in the Bay Area in January, we'll have to go then, if you're around.
