Become a human flamethrower. (Tamarind NYC)


I must have passed this restaurant 100 times on my way to work before finally breaking down and checking it out for myself. I must say I was pleasantly surprised. This is the first Indian restaurant I've been to that isn't over decorated with christmas lights or weird Indian relics. It was really simple and tasteful. The menu was gorgeous as well. I mean they had everything and anything I loved in Indian food. This is of course, the kind of food that will turn you into a human flame thrower the next day and probably make it impossible to be 'regular' for a week, but it was worth it. And to report so far, two days later i'm ok. The Indian food standard dish for comparison is as always chicken tikka and this place nailed it! The saag panir was good, and there were a few more dishes I dont know how to pronounce let alone spell that I highly recommend. So just order everything on the menu and hope you got some of the same things I did. I highly recommend this place. Oh and my date payed this time so I am not really sure how expensive it is. So when you go have your date pay and you wont be surprised.
