Indian Food & More

Last Friday my wife and I DID actually venture out in the bitter, bitter cold to both the restaurant and play.  I am glad we did, as it was very fun.  Other than the travel from the various parking lots into the buildings and back... it was easy enough to deal with the sub-zero weather even with the high winds.  

Ultimately, the dish I selected was a Vegetable Korma which was wonderful, hearty, and I ordered mine with a moderate to strong spice level.  DELIGHTFUL!  My wife ordered a dish that was new to both of us, which was a Curried Salmon (she ordered a mild spice level, regrettably (grin)).  It too was wonderful even though it could have had MORE spice!  My wife and I typically share our dishes so we can try more items.... especially at a non-buffet Indian meal.  We also shared two soups as a starter..... one was a Lemon Coriander soup and the other was called a "Mulligatawny" soup... both were wonderful.... the coriander was more mild and the mulligatawny very delightfully spicy.  We also had naan and jasmine rice with our meal.  We shared a "Gajar ka Halwa" which is a traditional Indian carrot based dessert with cashews and cardamom which has a been a personal favorite of mine for many, many years.... and I search for it anytime we are fortunate to visit an Indian restaurant.  

The play was fun and was a "one-woman multi-act play" about her hopes and dreams related to her passion for writing.  It was very enjoyable and pleasing.  Live theater is such a treat.  And I had a pleasant IPA during the play as well.  My wife enjoyed her preferred Diet Coke.
