I heard that it's insulting to ask an Indian chef to "tone down the heat" in vindaloo, so I guess I should feel insulted for getting chicken vindaloo that was toned down without my permission? The vindaloo was heavy on salt and tomato paste but lacks the sharp spiciness that I'm used to. It's A-OK for takeout, not comparable to proper sit-down Indian food, and undoubtedly not something the chef would cook for himself.
