In a day filled with news this is the second most widely read piece in the WaPo.

That's interesting bitsy. Indian food, like all food varies from restaurant to restaurant. We just had our favourite close down a couple of weeks ago. It seems Stratford is too small to support 2 Indian restaurants. Unfortunately, the inferior one is the one that survived. |

Indian and various Asian food are my favourites. Just not a capable enough cook to tackle it but I do have many friends in Montreal who are from those countries and make good food. Another country who's food I really like is Lebanon. |

We just enjoyed Butter Chicken on a recent trip. The amount of the spice you can tolerate, will grow on you, I think. I also own a Lebanese cook book which was given to us at a book fair in Toronto one time. I must dig it out and try some of the recipes again. |

I usually order Lamb Vindaloo, extra hot. When the back of my head gets soaked with perspiration, I know they got it right. Only once was it so hot that I was in tears but that was because I had a sore in my mouth where I had bitten my cheek.. As Billy Wilder said: "Some Like It HOT!" My mother was a dreadful cook and the only spice was salt...so I guess in rebellion, the only foods I don't like are the bland ones. Edited by Trotsky, Mar 6 2015, 02:23 AM.

Indian food, of course, is to the UK what Chinese food or pizza is to North America. Toronto has a pretty good Little India. We don't go there near enough. |
