| - I recently stumbled across Taj India Palace by accident, forcing my poor companion to order take out with me. Of all the things I miss about NYC, savory, mouth tingling Indian food with toasty, soft piles of naan is very close to the top of the list.
As I always do in unknown Indian restaurant territory, I case out the joint. I find the least impressive, most bland, most disappointing dish on the menu and order it. If they can make it delicious, they win and I will return to sample the rest of their fare. That's right--I ordered Chicken Tikka Masala in mild.
...and it was wonderful, flavorful, spicy, moist boneless chicken heaven. The accompanying naan was perfect (and ample--bonus!). My companion had some other dish I've never heard of, and it was even better. Please note they have a very large menu and it can be difficult to choose a single entree.
Our appetites whetted, we will definitely be back for more.
