dosa

A very thin, crisp pancake made of finely ground lentils. Think crispy, lightweight, savory crepe.

Often served with chutney, spiced vegetables, and a type of tomato-and-tamarind-based soup.
Dosas are vegetarian.

Let's go to that dosa place for lunch!

When a dosa has a savory filling, it's called a masala dosa.

Namaste

"Hello" and "goodbye" in India. Like "aloha," but said while clasping both hands (like in prayer, I guess) in front of you.

A slightly more formal variant is "namaskar."
Going in: "Namaste."
Going out: "Namaste."
