P-Town is as rude as calling San Francisco “Frisco.” Have some respect.

We had a similar experience to Rhizomorph with regards to the service. It was authentically Indian, but not in a good way…
Line out the door on a cold Saturday night with nobody playing host, no list being taken, new people arriving all the time confused about the system (or lack there of), who came first, etc. They don’t take reservations for less than 5–we tried! They may have been overwhelmed by the crowd but they need to get that situation sorted out soon or it won’t matter how good the food is.
Waiting area is minuscule, and they would be well served to follow the example of some of their predecessors, lose a two top and create more space to wait especially during the winter months. 3BO had a nice little lounge space carved out where you could wait for a table with a drink…they don’t need to devote that much space but they should find a happy medium if they aren’t going to take reservations.
Wait aside, when we finally got the food it was quite good. Portions on the curry were a bit small relative to the price points, but everything was obviously prepared with care. If they get the service side of the equation worked out they should do well.

Tasty authentic Indian is hard to find so i’m looking forward to following up on your lead. Amist all these fabulous restaurant mentions, I cannot believe you left out Annapurnas in Santa Rosa though. Technically, it is Nepalese, but since the majority of people here have never even been to India they’ll never know the difference. And it is the best curry i’ve ever tried outside dusty Asian courties.

When you start hearing people who actually live and work in Petaluma calling it “Pee=Town”, then, perhaps it will be acceptable.
Until then, the city’s full and proper name will do. If you want to be a catchy little ad writer, go work for an advertising agency. As it is, this blog is part of (what used to be) a serious and respected news organization.

*P-town* is acceptable (and my preferred) slang for Petaluma, and I use it all the time. *Luma* also works.
And when a good rock band is playing, well, we’ve been calling the town *METALuma* since the eighties.

Come on. I think its catchy. One can only write “Petaluma” so many times. Egg-town? Butter ‘n Egg Ville, The P-zah. Give me something else and I’ll use it. And, don’t call me middle aged. My wrinkles don’t appreciate it.

Yeah, tell me about it… If only Heather knew how foolish she sounds by calling it Pee town.. you’d think she grew up on the streets of Oakland.Maybe it’s the middle aged women rapper fantasy

P-town already.
We don’t call it P-Town and the Pee Dee shouldn’t either.
And I was waiting for a review of the Denny’s freebie breakfast.
Where were you, Bite Club?
