Is this your business?Claim it freeA vegetarian Indian restaurant in Shchuna Dalet, near Ben-Gurion University, known for its thali, samosas and paneer dishes.
Hodu HaKtana has served vegetarian Indian food in Beer Sheva for more than 12 years, by its own account. Chef Hanoch Stamker opened it, and its site says four chefs who came from India now cook in the kitchen. The room is spacious, with seating on low sofas or at tables, and the menu runs from samosas and pakoras to thali, malai kofta, dal and biryani, with a few fish dishes. Its site says travellers back from India, students from the nearby university and families from the city all eat there, and it also delivers across Beer Sheva.
