A great new pizzeria opened this spring in the western reaches of Soho. Reaching LTD Pizza is somewhat death-defying - first, you have to cross the four-lane entrance to Holland Tunnel - but the reward is a thin, expertly made slice.
Saravanaa Bhavan is a worldwide chain offering southern Indian-style vegetarian cuisine, for which the dosa is the signature dish. Of the two dozen offered, I picked this one ($14), which boasts a "gunpowder" mixture of ground cayenne and other spices liberally sprinkled on the inside of the wrapper.
When a new business opens with just three menu items, plus fries, in an all-white space, I can't help but wonder if they're boxing themself in with such a minuscule menu. But Kolachi, the new Pakistani takeout spot in the East Village, doesn't need to hide behind a bigger menu - the three paratha rolls it serves (beef, chicken, vegetarian) are more than plenty.
