Naresh Kumar, owner of Sitar restaurant on 21st Avenue, is taking over the space on Church Street that formerly housed Taste of India restaurant. Kumar, a native of Punjab in northern India, is renovating the space and expects to launch Madras Bhavan sometime this week. While Taste of India specialized in cuisine from the northern part of India, including tandooris, Madras Bhavan will serve both northern cuisine and the spicier curries from the southern region, Kumar says. Madras Bhavan, located at 1805 Church St., phone 327-5400, will be open daily, with a lunch buffet from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and dinner from 5 to 10 p.m.
