(This venue is closed.) Curd rice, also known as yogurt rice in recognition of its two principal ingredients, is a common accompaniment to South Indian meals. Not only does it douse the burn of spicier dishes, but in cases of overindulgence — the plate shown below was just one of several, enabling me to try every item from Hoysala's bottomless buffet (lunch, $13.95) — curd rice can serve as an end-of-meal stomach-settler, too.
