Kasa

I have been longing to try Kasa in the Castro, but every time I try to swing casually by on my way home it is impossible to find a parking spot. So, for a year plus, I have been stuck with drive-by daydreams about kati rolls and Kingfisher beer.

Last week, the parking gods were with me!

I popped in to grab a quick dinner on another night I was late leaving work.  Per their advice, I decided to try two kati rolls and selected the chicken tikka masala (because it draws rave reviews on Yelp) as well as the daily vegetarian special, aloo gobi.  I generally eat vegetarian when eating Indian because the options are so varied and flavorful, and I loved that Kasa has a rotating veg special on their menu. 
 
The roti wraps were buttery and pliable and the fillings spicy and well seasoned.  As excited as I was for the veg option, I don't think the cumin and coriander did enough to offset the blandness of the cauliflower ... overall it could have used a bit more kick.  I did appreciate the healthy dollop of raita in which to dip my kati. 
 
One of the nicest discoveries at Kasa was their commitment to natural, local ingredients.  Thank you, Kasa, for your commitment to good homestyle neighborhood food and a greener environment.
