My normal go-to is the takeout joint around the corner, Laxmy, but we decided to enjoy a dining out experience at La Bamboo, in Stuttgart West, to expand our typical routine.
Sri Lankan u0026 Southern Indian food offer much different flavors and ingredients than most Punjabi Indian restaurants. If you enjoy fish, coconut and more tangy sauces, it’s definitely going to please you.
We stayed with the Sri Lankan Spring rolls (delicious!) and then the Krabben Töpfchen, which was like a rich, turmeric shrimp bisque.
We shared potato dosai (served with lentil crepes) and Devil Shrimp. They asked how spicy we wanted it u0026 we told them to not hold back. After several, repeated warnings, they finally agreed to serve us Sri Lankan spicy, when we told them that we were not German ???? The spice was powerful, but really well balanced.
They also had great cocktails and Arrak, a spirit made from fermented palm flower sap.
Very friendly (and adorably concerned) staff, elegant presentation, delicious food. Menu is great for pescatarians, vegetarians u0026 vegans. They do offer meat options, too.
They also offer DoorDash delivery, which is what tempted us to try it.
They speak great German u0026 English.
