Can you tell us where you got the food so we can order accordingly if we go there?!


Indaroma, off Little River Turnpike. Really good food, more of a Panera/Chipotle vibe and not really sit down service. Great food and we've eaten there many times, but tonight's chef was a little too happy to spice it up!



I went there for lunch because of your post & the samosa chat & kati roll were just alright, roughly on par with the Hot Breads franchise. Are there any specific dishes that are great?

To de-spice, I'd use ghee.

For example, if it's chickpeas with spicy sauces, add your own chickpeas from the can. Or whatever veggies you want in it. You're basically making more portions and eat it with naan or rice.



I do this anyway with dal and other lentil dishes. Rinse a can of black beans or chicpeas and add.

If you are talking heat, sugar and dairy.

Ghee. Will bring down the heat instantly. (I'm Indian.)

Tell them, "I'm hopelessly American. I need it mild!"


The funny thing is, we're Indian! We can handle spicy, but not whooboyhotdamnspicy - which is sometimes assumed, precisely because we're Indian


Lol! Another indian here. DH's ordering mantra -indian medium spicy.

In addition to yogurt, rice and naan, you can also add coconut milk to some types of dishes.

Rice. Naan. Homemade raita.

Yum. Can I come over and help you eat your leftovers?

Ordered a bunch of Indian take-out, that will be leftovers for a couple of days. We ordered it "spicy" - thinking "regular" would be toned town for an American palate, but this is definitely super spicy! Besides yogurt, any way to tone down the spiciness??
