Dosa House
Included In
If anybody tries to tell you that the Seattle area lacks dosa options, bring them to Dosa House in Bellevue and prepare to act smug. There are more than 40 varieties at the bustling casual-counter service place, where you’ll find families gathered at long tables to accommodate the massive dishes. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by all the choices—including Indian-Chinese fusions like the noodle dosa—but quantity doesn’t dilute the quality. If you only have room for a couple, get the Chettinad dosa with its tender potato filling and hints of cardamom, alongside the onion chili version for some spice. And fill your table with a few non-dosa sides like the paani poori that’s so flaky and delicate it should be served on a tiny velvet pillow.
