Feb 2017: An Indian Feast


Good friends + lots of food = a memorable time. 


Nothing succeeds quite like excess.


Half-n-Half: tart strawberry puree with sweet lassi spiced with green cardamom


Vegetable 'pakoras'. Usually the vegetables are cut-up in same sizes and then mixed together. I preferred to keep (and fry) them separately. Served with warm sweet-n-sour tamarind sauce.


Signature cocktail: pureed mango, club soda, blueberries, mint, and optional alcohol (in this instance, Tito's vodka)



Plain and garlic naan varieties. Requested by popular demand!


Tomato rice speckled with lightly fried onion seeds.


Chicken tikka masala.


Hariyali shrimp: fresh fennel, cilantro, mustard seeds, onion, garlic, and ginger.


Saag Paneer: large pieces of fried paneer cubes in creamed spinach

Rajmah masala: a vegan red kidney bean dish

Gulab jamun: Milk curds (precisely, 'chena') deep fried and then soaked in syrup

A special menu for a special occasion.
