She closes when she sells out of her dishes for the day. Its not a typical restaurant in the sense that she has open hours; when her daily made curry is gone, its off the menu for the day. She does not make another batch until the next day. At least that's how it used to be.

You know that shit is top notch too, I've never been at a place that shuts their counter down after selling out that didn't have absolutely bananas food.

I'm down in Texas and we have several BBQ joints like that. My brother used to know this old man named N.O. that did it this way. He'd be out at the ass crack of dawn with the smoker he ran through the night, and you best get there and get in that line if you wanted anything. He retired some years ago, and nobody has filled his place because it's damn near impossible. Bet this little lady with her curries will be the same way.

There's a pizza place in Boston's North End like this. They make a certain amount of two kinds of pizza every day and there's a line out the door until it's gone. Umberto's I think.

I used to live in Boston and I think about Umbertos daily. Their arancini were to die for.

I definitely was thinking of Umberto's. Maybe the best pizza I've ever had in my life and that's saying something.

Nothing like driving out to Lockhart Texas at 9am to hit up Blacks beef ribs!
