Indian Restaurant

4 March 2012

When I came home from Valladolid, I noticed that around the corner from my apartment there was a new Indian restaurant. I was really excited to try it out, but I was a little skeptical about the quality of the food--since it's on the Explanada. The Explanada--like any boardwalk--isn't exactly known for great food. It's just where all the tourists go.

In spite of all this, a friend and I decided to go today, and the food was AMAZING!

As a starter, we ordered tandoori chicken and we were given four different sauces to put on it. The sauces--mint, mango, spicy, and yogurt--were delicious.

Next, we ordered chicken tikka masala and vegetable biryani.Throughout dinner, we couldn't stop saying how good the food was! All we could get out between bites of food were sighs of appreciation. In the end, we had WAY too much food. We couldn't finish it all--even though we desperately wanted to!

We loved everything we tried because it was all so flavorful. Each bite was just as good as the bite before. Typical Spanish food is actually rather bland and there isn't really anything spicy even if you try to count patatas bravas. At this restaurant, we were able to pick the level of spiciness of all of the food, and we were thrilled to have legitimately spicy food.

Needless to say, this is a place we'll be visiting again!
