Expressing Our Lifestyle

Sai Krishna Bhavan – New Indian Restaurant in Morrisville, NC is Open.

I had lunch Buffet Yesterday and Here is my quick review

• Lot of  food times in weekend Lunch Buffet
• Cost of Buffet – $8.99
• Good, Fresh Food
• I loved their plates

• Location – On Chapel Hill Road (54) inside Duke Urgent Care Complex (just before I540).
• Address – 10970 Chapel Hill Rd., Suite 108, Morrisville, NC 27560
• Phone – 919.481.0910

Food is tasty. I couldn’t taste all the items.  Food items could be arranged better.

We were wondering how much they will charge for lunch buffet, but 8.99 is perfect price.

My suggestion would be to reduce the menu items for buffet and make it 7.99. For weekday lunch, I don’t think 25+ items is required.

Sai Krishna Bhavan  Indian Restaurant in Morrisville  has good ambiance with tasty food.

While looking at Dinner Menu, Thali price of $19 is way too expensive. I can eat 5 times in McD’s

Last night we went to Chakras Indian Cuisine at Brier Creek. Located at same Walmart shopping complex, right opposite to Cold Stone.

Along with 2 other families, we decided to try Chakras Indian Cuisine.

We started reading the menu and we kept looking at the Menu for over 10 minutes. One of my friend was like, do we have to find a different restaurant?

Here is a quick review of chakras indian cuisine raleigh

• Menu – 2 of 10 (Confusing and hard to understand)
• Taste – 5 of 10
• Atmosphere – 6 of 10
• Cost – 3 of 10 (Expensive)
• Quantity  – 1 of 10
• Service – 6 of 10

My wife ordered Lamb Briyani and friend ordered Chicken Briyani.

Looks like same flavored rice was used for both biryanis with chicken and lamb. That  was a huge mood killer.

At Indian restaurants we expect hardcore, properly cooked biryani, not pre-made rice with different meat added to biryani.

Quantity of the biryani for the cost was another major upset factor.

If you are looking for proper chicken or lamb biryani try Laziz Briyani corner. Then you will know what I’m talking about.

Problems with Menu

Chakras Indian cuisine menu

Menu has 2 folds (left and right). Right were he fold marks appear is where food items were displayed. Next the cost per food item was like adding in elementary school math.

You can be creative with me, but certain items have to be traditional. Trying to change people expectations while ordering food is not a good choice.

Keep it simple. List the cost of  the food item next to the food. Don’t make customer add numbers.

After looking at the menu, we figured, cost of the item has to be added to some value. At the top of the menu, they had 2 values 6.25/8.75 ( which was for lunch/dinner).

Indian Fast food in US is good concept, but its didn’t appeal to us. For $35 we spent, quantity of the food was very less compared to other Indian restaurants. We wonder what would be the quantity of the food during lunch.

First impression with chakras indian cuisine was way below our expectation. We will try agian, f we happen to hear better reviews from others who try the food at Chakras Indian cuisine.
