Thindi is interesting — their website says that their goal was to offer something a bit different from the “curry focused” Indian restaurants in the GTA, focusing instead on Indian street food, with a bunch of sandwiches and jazzed-up Maggi noodles on the menu.

I went with the green chili cheese toast, which the menu describes as being “layered with fresh coriander chutney, onions, bell peppers, thai green chilies and cheese.”

It’s basically an Indian grilled cheese sandwich; it has a nice zippy flavour from the chutney, some pops of spice from the green chilis, and a decent amount of gooey processed cheese.

It didn’t exactly blow my mind, though I will admit that I removed the raw red onions, thus rendering my opinion somewhat worthless (raw onions are terrible, what can I say??).  Usually when I remove them from something, I feel like I’m not missing out on much, but in this case I think they were probably pretty important to the overall taste/texture of the sandwich.
