Want to try something really different? Then how about a curried lamb...burrito? This is the kind of food you will find at Avatar's Punjab Burritos, which serves Indian food, Mexican style.
Here, instead of refried beans, spanish rice, salsa, guacamole and sour cream, burritos are filled with curried garbanzo beans, basmati rice, seasonal fruit chutney, homemade tamarind sauce and yogurt.
Varieties include curry chicken, jamaican drunk chicken, blackened rock shrimp or salmon and several vegetarian choices such as smoked egg plant and curried pumpkin.
All burrito fillings are also available as rice plates and they sell several salads as well.
Everything I've tried here is quite good. If you've never had Indian food, this is a good place to start. The ingredients seem very fresh and homemade. My vegetarian friends really enjoy coming here because of the large variety of choices available to them.
The Mill Valley Avatar's is a take out version of a larger, and very popular, full service restaurant, named Avatar's, in Sausalito. The Mill Valley place is the owner's (named Avatar, in case you haven't guessed) way of providing customers with a fast, portable, healthy meal.
Three forks.
Avatar's Punjab Burritos, 15 Madrona St., a couple of blocks away from downtown Mill Valley.
