Įarly Modern English also used the names canel and canella, similar to the current names of cinnamon in several other European languages, which are derived from the Latin word cannella, a diminutive of canna, "tube", from the way the bark curls up as it dries. The name "cassia", first recorded in late Old English from Latin, ultimately derives from the Hebrew word קציעה qetsīʿāh, a form of the verb קצע qātsaʿ, "to strip off bark". The Greek was borrowed from a Phoenician word, which was similar to the related Hebrew word קנמון ( qinnāmōn). Overall horrible experience for both dine in and buffet.The English word "cinnamon", attested in English since the 15th century, deriving from the Ancient Greek κιννάμωμον ( kinnámōmon, later κίνναμον : kínnamon), via Latin and medieval French intermediate forms. Overall it was a disappointing experience.UPDATE:Went there during the lunch buffet and the yellow rice was spoiled (smelled rotten), the dishes lacked flavor, the tandoori chicken was extremely dry, the remaining chicken dishes lacked sufficient spices.

First time being in a restaurant where you are charged for water.
SPICY MINT REVIEWS FREE
The water is served in water bottles and no such thing as free refill here. The male waitor was more concerned with cleaning the buffet area instead of checking in on the guests or taking away finished plates from table. My friend witnessed some disturbing behavior with the kitchen employee who wore same gloves in the bathroom, didnt wash hands, and never put new gloves on before handling the food again.The female staff waitress was not attentive.

They also dont have any beef items on the menu (only Indian restaurant Ive seen that doesnt). If it werent for the Groupon I wouldnt have come to try this spot because the menu items are overpriced. The food was okay and the Groupon made it worth it in the end. And to boot, he charged me for 4 bottles when we only had 2. This wasnt my issue, being told upon giving me the water is when I want to be told there is an associated cost. Indian or otherwise.I know the good people of Albany cant see this as the standard for Indian Cuisine.ALSO - the checker took the water off after he tried to argue with me about COVID and the need to give bottled water. Slap!There has to be better Indian Cuisine in Albany - surely!Do yourself a favor and try some other great joints in town. Although he wasnt the guy who ran the nightclub style music (poor choice of music for a dining establishment btw)Waiter wore a mask.The Chai was good ALTHOUGH I had asked for it to NOT have any sugar. Like it was from a bottle and then watered down again.Highlights were the waiter, who was pleasant. The mint chutney tasted watered down and bland. We ordered Gobi Manchurian, the sauce was overly sweet and the dish was soggy - reminiscent of precooked and microwaved style meals.7. We ordered Samosa Chaat, a fave we order in every city we go to - struggled to find the Samosa and had insufficient toppings.6. Also didnt have sufficient toppings which is typical when you order this dish.5. We ordered Pani Puri, didnt match the images on the website. When water is placed on the table, and it is bottled water, and the waiter and host DO NOT tell you they will charge you for it - I have a problem.4. When you pay for food in the non buffet dining hours, there is an expectation the quality increases as do the prices.3. The food is less than buffet level food at best2a. I would say I am well versed in Indian food, cook it at home, eaten it my entire life, have visited India - with all of that said here is my frank review of this establishment.1.
