one of LA’s best veggie burgers is at an indian restaurant?!!??!
10December 18th, 2009LA restaurants, samosa houseyep, i shit you not. you gotta get to the samosa house and try this thing.
vegan burger at the samosa house: veggie patty, indian spices, peanuts, tomatoes, onions, coriander. $3.99
i didn’t even know the samosa house had burgers—i’m usually too caught up in the cheap and delicious dinner combos to notice anything else. but last time i was there, i saw a paper sign hanging up at the counter advertising a veggie burger for just $3.99. i asked them if it was vegan, and sure enough it was!
i ordered one to go, and to be honest i didn’t expect it to be very good. i mean, who orders a veggie burger at an indian restaurant?! i am pleased to report though, that this thing was better than good—amazing even! i’ve never had such a tasty and uniquely spiced burger. the patty was thick and meaty, not full of vegetables and grains like some vegan ones are, and it was topped with chopped up roasted peanuts. add that to an indian sauce, some fresh vegetables and coriander leaves and you have pure delicious.
i will definitely, definitely be back to order this again. and i encourage you to try it out as well. if you like burgers and indian food, this is the perfect intersection.

How is it cooked? Looks like it may be deep fried? Looks delicious!

WOW that looks really good! I’ll have to try it soon… been looking for more veg-friendly LA restaurants to try. Did you hear about the new vegan pizzeria that opened in L.A.? Check out Veg News, they just posted an article about it today.

I always stick to the hot bar even though the other items on the menu sound so intriging so I’m psyched you took the plunge–now I know to give it a whirl.

[…] house in culver city. in addition to their dinner combo menu (which is hard to veer away from but often worth it), they also offer a vegan version of the classic vegetarian street dish: […]

[…] had a hot and cold relationship with Samosa House in the past, but their inclusion on this list is proof […]
