Unexpected Gem: Indian Food in New Orleans! 🇮🇳✨

You don’t come to New Orleans for Indian food — but after crossing the bridge to Algiers and dining at Plume, you just might! Tucked away in a quiet lane under the Crescent City Connection (formerly the Greater New Orleans Bridge), this painted brick house turned restaurant offers a uniquely intimate experience.👍 Step inside, and you’re welcomed into a space that feels both humble and heartfelt. The dining area opens directly into the kitchen 🍳, and if the AC isn’t always perfect, the warmth of the atmosphere more than makes up for it. A vibrant mural decorates the back wall, and while the wine glasses are simple, the charm is undeniable. The menu — a double-sided, frequently changing printout — is a testament to creativity and care. The wine list is small but thoughtful, with just a few well-chosen options 🍷. Dessert? Only available occasionally, making it a sweet surprise when it is! Every dish is crafted with intention. You truly can’t go wrong, but if the Banana Chaat appetizer is available — don’t miss it! 🍌💥 Recently expanded into a former apartment next door, Plume continues to win hearts. Tonight, it’s fully booked — a sign that the days of walking in without a reservation may soon be over. If you’re seeking something authentic, unexpected, and unforgettable in New Orleans, Plume is a must-try. A hidden treasure worth discovering! 🌟 #PlumeRestaurant #HiddenGem #IndianFood #NewOrleansEats #UnexpectedDelight
