hy doesn’t anyone do a dinner buffet? The traditional American way to eat Indian food is in large quantities in the afternoon, but why not at night when we can happily over-indulge and then lie prostrate on the floor at home to gently slip into a food coma.
Indian Cuisine abounds in the greater New Haven region; who doesn’t love those creamy sauces, tender chunks of stewed chicken, lamb or vegetables, or a basket of buttery naan? No really, who—because you can find a successful Indian restaurant in almost any suburban outpost these days—so everybody must love it. Or at least these ones. . .
