Lemon Grass

Lemon Grass Review

One of Bhubaneswar's most stylish restaurants, the Lemon Grass is decorated with elegant wood furniture, white etched pillars, statues set in the wall, and Chinese motifs and paper lanterns—there's a lot to look at in this 60-seat restaurant. The front of the restaurant is dominated by a red pagoda-style roof, the heads of some fearsome snow dragon, and a second giant dragon with a turtle riding piggyback. Aside from being eye candy, this restaurant serves a mix of Chinese, Indonesian, Thai, and Japanese. Opt for the fish steamed in a banana leaf or equally good the prawns nanzin (prawn cooked with corn in a chilly sauce). Javanese noodles (light noodles cooked with shallots and other vegetables) is one of several good dishes for vegetarians.
