Indian food is delicious


Just ordered chicken tikka masala, garlic naan and a mango lassi DoorDash.

reply

Forgot to mention, paratha is so much better than naan. I’ve switched over.

reply

I normally have Indian about once a month (slurp!).

reply

Sounds kinky.

reply

That’s nothing, I have Chinese twice a week, lol.

reply

I am not a fan of curry.

reply

I don't mind some of the hotter stuff but generally it all seems to be brown and overloaded with spices. Not really my thing.

reply

I ate in a couple of Indian restaurants in Melbourne many years ago and the food was so bad. Everything was far too hot and had the same nasty foul curry taste, that I have never gone back to one. And this from someone who cooks and enjoys the occasional curry at home.


reply

Those were probably from "Western" Indian restaurants. I agree, they taste bad. Best to eat authentic.

reply

I've heard that kind of thing mentioned a few times, "Western" or "Must have been a cheaper place". I'm not so sure, one place was quite expensive and the food tasted like detergent. In regards to authenticity I can't really comment but in the past I ate at a few Indian places and it was all quite ordinary and I find it hard to believe they were all "Western".

Definite lack of diversity in their cuisine.

reply

Well the restaurants were staffed by Indians so unless they had made up a "special" menu to cater to what they thought would be the Western palate ( and failed ) I would guess it was genuine Indian cuisine.


reply

One place I went to the staff were very rude as well and another place the guy taking the order couldn't understand English so I walked out. So it's a combination of a few things.

I also prefer to make my own food including curries rather than go out and pay for them. I've become a very confident cook which means I am more and more reluctant to take a chance out there.

reply

Yes unless you go to McDonalds it's often quicker to cook something at home than go out to buy take-away food anyway. And it's usually healthier and tastes better.

reply

It's certainly extremely tasty. But I always make sure to order the loperamide dessert for afters.

reply

Indians are obsessed with mangos.

reply

Anyone here from the UK? I've heard Indian food is extremely popular there. Is this true?

reply

Yes, cause there’s millions of Indians and South Asians living in Blighty. Not a big fan of it myself, but it’s very popular. Lots of Curry houses and takeaways.

reply

I gotta watch that stuff. It gets in my mouth!

reply

Ummm, isn't that where it's supposed to go? lol
