It offers more breadth than depth, but the Globe still produces some tasty fare.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The menu is divided by meal type rather than region. Small plates has items like samosa and dumplings. The bhajji ($5 small, $8 large) are deep-fried vegetable fritters that are crispy and have some chew. You primarily detect the masala flavor and the fried taste. They&#8217;re not too greasy and pair well with the accompanying tomato achar sauce.<\/p>\n<p>You can get the Wai Wai ramen noodles ($9) in soup or fried, and I chose the latter. The ramen noodles are perfectly cooked and have a ton of flavor. I felt there were too many vegetables&#8211;such as the carrots and cabbage&#8211;that took away from this dish. Also, I didn&#8217;t receive any of the tomato or egg that was supposed to be included. At least the &#8220;mild&#8221; spicy level was indeed spicy.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll find the American portion of the menu under sandwiches (e.g. ham sandwich, smoked turkey sandwich, etc.).\u00a0I chose the spicy chicken pita ($7), which I absolutely devoured.\u00a0 The chicken is tender and flavorful from the tamarind sauce but only a little bit spicy (less so than the ramen). All the vegetables complement the overall taste. The pita is grilled and very tasty.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-5674\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191003_122247-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"20191003_122247\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191003_122247-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191003_122247-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/20191003_122247-1024x678.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Mexican and Korean tacos ($10 for three with various meat choices) are on the menu, too. I enjoyed the latter version. You get plenty of pork, though it could have been more tender. The sauce is sweet but not too sweet.<\/p>\n<p>One other menu section from which I ordered was rice and curry. The kimchi fried rice was tempting, but I settled on the Meat Daily Special Bento Box ($14.95). This dish originates from Nepal and\u00a0features\u00a0a delightful curry chicken, accompanied by white rice, naan, potatoes and chickpeas, plus assorted veggies. It&#8217;s very filling.<\/p>\n<p>The Globe serves lunch Monday through Saturday and dinner Monday through Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p>See more photos in our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/eatdrinkmadison\/albums\/72157711192388918\" target=\"_blank\">Globe Flickr album<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View Menu, Reviews, Photos &amp; Information about The Globe, Downtown Isthmus and other Restaurants in Madison\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zomato.com\/madison-wi\/the-globe-downtown-isthmus\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none; width: 130px; height: 36px; padding: 0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zomato.com\/logo\/19231369\/minilink\" alt=\"The Globe Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - Zomato\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Located downtown, the Globe features cuisines from around the world.
