My top two are Chicken Vindallo (Extra Spicy) and Sag Panir.
I might try Butter Chicken tonight.
Any other recommendations?
TIA

I want a dosa, there is a place near me that has them - they look great. But I always get anxious about how to eat them and chicken out and order something else. How do you eat it?Masala dosa. Usually only available at South Indian restaurants.
Break off small pieces of the dosa using your hands and dip into the sauce.I want a dosa, there is a place near me that has them - they look great. But I always get anxious about how to eat them and chicken out and order something else. How do you eat it?
This is how I go too. I'll also use it to grab some of the potatos.Break off small pieces of the dosa using your hands and dip into the sauce.
Likely Chana MasalaNot sure what it is called but I attended an Indian wedding. They had a dish with chick peas in a spicy tomato based sauce. Loved it.
Was on a train from Mumbai to Aurangabad and we stopped and had samosas from a street vendor. God were they good.Aloo Gobi and Chana Masala are a couple of my favorites.... that said, I am totally in the mood for an entire platter of veggie samosas right now. Thanks for that.
Another vote for Lamb Vindaloo. Gimmie cheese naan and make it spicy. Pair with a nice Reisling.Lamb vindaloo and garlic naan.
And I ask them to make it as spicy as they would for natives, not for mere American mortals.
Huh. I thought Chicken Tikka Masala was British.All of them.
If it's my first time at an Indian establishment, will usually go with Chicken Tikka Masala as a baseline to level set on their quality. Otherwise known as the gringo-boy dish. If they pass the bar, the sky's the limit.
For those going all vegetarian, Chana Saag is nice.
Appetizer shout out: Vegetable Samosas
This.Lamb vindaloo and garlic naan.

You’re a brave man eating that roadside stuff, but no doubt it was as good as you’ll get in any restaurantWas on a train from Mumbai to Aurangabad and we stopped and had samosas from a street vendor. God were they good.

Chicken Tikka or Tandori Chicken (prefer dry meats without sauce), Naan and Papadum (that fried chip thing restaurants often give you before your meal, like chips and salsa). Kingfisher is a great beer to compliment the meal.
We went to India for a friend's wedding in Goa. While we were there we did some travelling/site seeing. We hit Mumbai, Goa, Aurangabad, and Udaipur.mr. furley said:more about this![]()

OMG yes ?Doug B said:Pakoras -- just means various kinds of fried veggies. Faves are onion, eggplant, and spinach pakoras. Great for dipping into tamarind or mint chutney.
