Indo Cafe

I keep a list of Los Angeles restaurants where I can take a bottle of wine with little ($5.00 or under) or no corkage fee. The Indo Cafe in Palms is the latest on my list. With no corkage fee it's a recession treat! I recommend the won ton soup; light tasty broth that needed no seasoning with many delicate won tons. Also very good were the chicken tossed thin noodles and the chicken coated in a coconut red curry paste. Chicken thigh and legs pan seared and blanketed in a delicious tangy sauce. Four pieces per serving. The oyster - type sauce mixed vegetables were dull.
As a former server I feel empathize with a waitperson running around trying to fill everyones' requests. One earnest and busy lady hustled to wait on eight tables in the small cafe. Along with your wine and beer of choice, also carry in some patience.

It shell be delicious...

On a trip to *Paris I ordered pizza at a lovely outdoor cafe. The pie came to the table with a single fried egg in the center. The server cut the pizza into pieces and the golden yolk split and spilt, coursing across the pie. Fantastic taste and a velvety addition to any pizza. Here at home I've added an egg to many combinations of pizza toppings and the taste is always wonderful.
Last night I baked a Mexican chicken casserole and added two pan fried eggs on top just before cutting and serving. Oh yeah! Try it. You'll feel very continental.
*Due to jet lag we were a bit off schedule. Hungry at 4:30 PM we scouted for a bistro only to find that most places serve just coffee and cocktails between 4 and 6 PM. A open restaurant that was serving French and Italian dishes was an oasis.
