Curry Up

What’s a girl to do when she’s snacky for a quick samosa?

Sure there’s the appeal of a buffet lunch at one of the all-stars … but then there’s the pre-schooler and his crankiness level and the crunch of time that doesn’t allow for full-service AND an on-time arrival at school.

Thank goodness I was in Maple Grove. (NEVER thought I would write that.)

Spying the modern logo for Curry Up, I turned into the strip mall parking lot. This little place has big intentions. Currently an extremly clean and cute grocery/take-out, they’re building out a restaurant in the back.

The take-away counter is stocked with all sorts of goodies, including shake-shake bhel and batata vada. We had some lovely samosas with tangy chutney and the pre-schooler downed his mango drink in 2.2 seconds flat.

Look for great things from these guys, more than a simple mom and pop, their website is all about education and lowering the barrier to Indian foods.

If the close proximity to the new Hindu temple has anything to do with their success, Curry Up could see many new competitors, and Maple Grove could become a hotbed of samosa snacking. Please please please.
