India Sweet and Spice on Venice Blvd is an excellent selection. The Masala Dosa is perfect for your requirements. It comes with a tasty soup and a "runnier than I prefer" coconut chutney. It only seemed like a 5 minute wait. The fried snacks are hit and miss. Some I have loved and some were not at all to my taste. Last week I tried the Peas with Mushrooms. Very good. Their food is a bit hotter than most Indian places but proper heat for the cooking from their region of India. Their Jelabis were the oiliest I have ever tried, don't bother. The last time I saw what looked like the shape and color of a brownie. I don't know what it was but it tasted of good caramel and had nuts and maybe dried fruit in it. If you recognise it in the case I do recommend it. The cast of characters is quite entertaining.
