(From December 2010) Claims of “contemporary Indian cuisine†aside, we’re always happy to see dishes on the menu that are about as old as the civilization itself. Our timeline-spanning favorites were well represented: beef korma (a nutty sauce with garlic, coconut, and lemon), chicken tikka masala (tomato-butter sauce with spices and herbs), saag paneer, and ample quantities of naan for cleaning our plates. For dessert, creamy mango custard united past and present. Bar. |

(From June 2012) This tiny vegetarian jewel (the covered front porch is magical at night) was recently named one of the country’s top ten healthy restaurants by Gourmet Live. Our “tomato dream” soup sparked by garlic, ginger, and basil made a fine starter; then we dove into an extremely flavorful entrée of tofu with curried greens, plus a filling samosa and crispy, peppery pappadum. Gulab rice pudding pleased with every spoonful. Beer & wine. |

(From June 2011) If possible, plan your meal at this vege-tarian Indian restaurant for the patio, with its tile floor, graceful black rope-twist columns, yaupon holly tree, and hanging bas-kets—it’s nothing short of magical. And the buffet is full of interesting dishes. We started with a nutritious toor dal soup, then it was on to the chickpea curry, the collard greens with tomato chutney, and the dhokla (a steamed rice-dal cake). Pineapple-coconut halvah was fluffy and crowned with vanilla rice pudding. |
