The word on Nomadus
Here's the word going around
I haven't tested which Nomadus shows up for me yet, so this is the diners' read, not mine.

By most accounts Nomadus is a study in extremes. Reviewers crown the Ghee Podi Idli the best thing on the menu, no contest, a rich, deep flavor that isn't spicy but hits you anyway, dissolving on your tongue when eaten screaming hot. The chicken popcorn and egg noodles draw solid marks, and a strawberry boba gets called premium, creamy and full. On the right order, people say, it's a joy.
Then there's the other Nomadus: reviewers report the paneer Frankie coming out as a sad roti wrap with almost nothing inside, oily and undercooked, and say the size of your Frankie seems to depend on whether the kitchen knows your face. A bad look for any kitchen, the word goes. Order well and you'll be thrilled, order wrong and you'll wonder what happened.
An idli that dissolves on your tongue? I'll order it screaming hot and skip the Frankie roulette.
The Order
Reviewers point to the Ghee Podi Idli, eaten hot, with a strawberry boba, plus the chicken popcorn if you want more.
⚠ Gotcha
The paneer Frankie has been hit or miss on stuffing and size, by several accounts. Lean on the idli and boba instead.
That's the word on this one.
