Being a veggie it can be tricky eating out in some parts of the world. So when I’m presented with a choice from the menu it comes as a bit of a surprise, so much so that what I tend to do at Govinda’s pure vegetarian restaurant on De Winton road in Kampala is go for the thali lunch that works out at incredible value.
The lunch is a buffet with a selection of salad starters, various chillies and pickles three or four curries and soups plus puris chapattis and rice which is always followed by a sweet and washed down with an endless supply of chas a rather refreshing butter milk drink.
Being a buffet you can pile your thali tray as high as you like or just go back for several helpings and do this all for the price of 10,000 UGX which is about £2.70. Yum!
