6/4 What is the name of that Indian restaurant at the corner of
Shattuck and University? Is it good? I thought I saw it on
some news before. thanks
\_ Viceroy? I've eaten there once before and the vegetarian
food was decent. I have a friend who likes the chicken there,
though I can't personally vouch for it. -sax
\_ or do you mean Curry in a Hurry?
\_ Curry in Hurry is ok. Cheap, some stuff is prtty good. I didn't
like the lamb stuff too much. For the price and location not bad.
Although I'd normally jsut spend a buck more and go to Naan 'n
Curry on Telegraph.
\_ Ew! No! Naan 'n Curry is greasy, bland, and awful. Try the
vegetarian place on Dwight. -- athithi #1 fan
\- the N&C on t'graph is inferior to the N&C in the 'loin.
KhannaPeena on upper Solano seemed to be good quality
based on one dinner but a little pricier. Dunno about
their buffet.
What kind of food is at athithi? That's a good name,
meaning "guest". --psb
\_ it's healthy, vegetarian stuff. Don't remember
names, but stuff like cream of wheat with peas
and other veggies, lentil soup, onion bread...
I recommend the veggie squares and some sort of
potato dumpling with a mint-cucumber sauce. Oh yeah
there aren't any curries if that's what you're after.
-- obviously not indian
\- ok tnx. i was wondering if they had a
regional desingation. they seemed pretty
friends but empty unfortunately when i
walked by there a while ago. is the place
getting some business ... think they'll
survive? --psb
\_ By the way? Are there any tasty Indian dishes that are not very
spicy? I have tried a few curries at Naan 'n Curry and sort of
liked them but they were still too spicy for my tastes.
\_ We know but we're not going to tell you cuz you're a wuss.
\- a paneer should not be spicy. at some restaurants
hotness may be negotiable. --psb
\- try the korma (lamb or otherwise) -- not at all spicy
\- you might try south indian food [madras, not andhra ...
andhra might be the hottest cuisine in india]. the stuff
from the south is often really hot [vindaloos] or totally
nonhot [like yogurty stuff]. food from a lot of other
parts of india often are at least a little spicy ... kormas
can have chilli powder. but if you are so senstive even
whole chillis make things too hot for you, you may have to
negotiate with the kitchen. --psb |
