    My kids never tried Indian food before. We are from West Africa and tend to have an aversion towards foreign food. But then one day we bought fresh samosas at an Indian shop in Germany. We've all been hooked ever since. Really delicious ingredients.

      @The Wandering Soul wrong. samosas came TO the middle east FROM indians

      @Varun Chandra did you even read my statement correctly? Indians invented samosas but the arabs took this concept an created a dish called 'sambosa'. I am an indian living in the middle east and i can verify that this is a popular dish in the arab world too.

      Nuclear stealth bomber B2- spirit is what is wrong with world. Indian is not a race, but a bunch of races sharing a country. Station owner will be fair skinned for South India, dark skinned for extreme North/North East while perfectly average for a North Indian. Besides, there is nothing wrong with either of those skin color or hair.

    It looks awesome, but one question i have is what are the queues for the pumps like. In england we have petrol stations that are now small supermarkets. This means after people buy their fuel, they may be shoping for a few minutes for food items.
    Even getting a coffie from a main stream coffie shop can take 2-4 minutes. So what kind of queues like for people that just want to buy fuel.
    I understand that people don't have to buy petrol to visit the petrol station. There may be even additional parking. i sure as hell would get some petrol and smell that lovely food and stop to get some. While some poor sap is waiting behind me for fuel.

      While not everyone does it, in the US it's generally considered polite to get your gas first, then pull into the shop's parking lot for any other shopping. Since most people use pay-at-the-pump with a bank card, this isn't too hard to do. You're kinda seen as an asshole if you leave your car at the pump any longer than necessary, particularly if there's anyone waiting.
      (And likewise, "thanks" to our sprawling cities, most gas stations have enough land for a sizable parking lot.)

    The best things come from the most unexpected places. At least, that’s the case with the Bombay Frankie Company. They’re serving up some of the best Indian food in Los Angeles-all out of a gas station. Brother and sister Hiram and Priyanka grew up in California eating classic Indian cuisine. Now, they’ve launched the newest Indian food concept in California with their take on Mumbai’s street food classic, the frankie. Get ready to fill up your belly and your tank.
