Puyallup Indian Restaurant!

There’s an Indian restaurant on South Hill!! That’s right, our very own Indian food here in the outskirts of Puyallup. It was very exciting when I came home from an office party during the Christmas season and found my husband dining on a plate of Indian food - which he had bought on Meridian! I tried some right away but wanted to eat at the restaurant before I wrote anything. Well, the opportunity came just a few days later. We stopped at Sumay for a late lunch. While the restaurant is located on always-busy Meridian, it is in a strip mall situated diagonally behind – and nearly obscured by – Speedy Auto Glass. None-the-less, it is a nice little place with white tablecloths and that long-narrow footprint that we like. The menu had all the usual offerings and we started with papadam and mango chutney; and vegetable samosas. Both were crispy and tasty. The trio of sauces brought with the samosas (the traditional tamarin, mint, and chili) were delicious too. Next we had saag aloo (spinach and potatoes in a spicy sauce) which was quite tasty, chicken curry which was wonderful, and daal. With the daall, there was a choice of either the green lentils or the pink and yellow. I chose the latter. I did not care for this rendition. I usually love daal so this was a disappointment to me. The lunch dishes we ordered came with rice and vegetables. The servings were huge and despite our best efforts, we were only able to finish half of the food served. We were told that soon a lunch buffet would be added. We will be back!
