It took me a long time to fully embrace the melting pot in which I live. I still find myself craving meat and potatoes weekly, however I also find myself wanting rice almost on a daily basis, so to say the least my tastes have changed over the past couple years.
I never thought in a million years I'd make the leap of like to love over Indian food. Even though I don't want to order everything on the menu, I have a few favorites that I start to hunger for and need to satiate as soon as possible.
Korma Chicken, Butter Chicken, Garlic Naan, Basmati rice and Veggie Samosas speak to my soul the way Steak, Au gratin Potatoes and broccoli used to.
I have opened my heart to LOVE Indian food!
Over 6 months ago our favorite Indian food restaurant closed their doors as Eric and I were often the only people there when we ate. We started to get the feeling that we perhaps were their only customers, and while we would eat there often, we didn't eat there nearly long enough to keep their doors open.
So tonight we couldn't take the lack of Indian food anymore... we had to take a stand, and find an Indian restaurant we liked. So we thought the only way to finding our new one would be to start trying them.
The Best of India was our first stop, but it looked like a food dive you might find in a food court at a mall, and we weren't willing to go for non homemade food... we didn't want samosas straight out of the fridge, we wanted hand made samosas!
We drove down the road to find ...
We were reluctant to eat here too, but were pleasantly surprised!
The food is a little on the spendy side, but since we haven't indulged in the past couple months ... we went for it!
The music was wonderful, the place was ... nearly empty ... and the decoration was that of Ballywood! I think we'll be back
For now our tummys and hearts are full of Indian deliciousness!
