| - This morning, my little brother moved to India.
To see him off, my sister and I took him out for Indian as a 'this is what you'll be eating for a year' meal.
After reading many reviews about Indian places in the city, and not wanting to travel to the NE since we were sans car, we settled on Moti Mahal; and I think we chose wisely.
The food here is excellent. Between the three of us we had a mango martini, a coconut mohito, a Kingfisher beer, a butter chicken, a vegetables in a delicious cream and fennel curry, a lamb with spinach, saffron rice, naan and chicken simosas; all of which were great. I highly recommend any of the drinks as well as the saffron rice and vegetables * muah * delicious!
The decor is quintessentially Indian (or what I think of as 'quintessentially Indian') complete with tapestries on the walls and bronze dishes.
The service was a little slow at the beginning, but picked up and was attentive throughout. The server even graciously separated our bill at the end of the meal.
Each of us ate and drank for around $40 pp including tip so definitely affordable.
Although I am sure there are Indian places in the NE to write home about, the Moti Mahal still offers a yummy and pretty traditional Indian meal if you want to stick to downtown.
