I
came
to
DC
over
the
summer
in
order
to
see
the
sights
and
sample
the
food.
So
many
cuisines
to
choose
from,
DC
is
truly
a
melting
pot
of
food.
I
found
it
similar
to
London,
in
that
manner.
Maybe
all
national
capitals
are
that
way?
Either
way,
Indian
is
one
of
my
favorites,
so
I
found
an
allegedly
amazing
Indian
restaurant
for
lunch,
made
my
reservations,
and
came
in
to
see.
Right
away,
you're
blasted
with
luxury.
There
are
shiny
things
all
over
the
ways
and
curtains
of
glimmering
glass
beads
separating
the
tables
from
one
another.
Stark,
white
tablecloths,
I
felt
like
I
was
in
a
1940's
hunting
club,
or
something
like
that.
I
felt
instantly
warm
and
comfortable,
and
I
was
greeted
by
our
lovable
server.
Super
nice
fellow.
And
he
was
quick
to
make
recommendations,
which
I
love
when
I'm
trying
to
try
new
things.
Of
course,
I
started
off
with
a
mango
lassi.
Pound-for-pound,
one
of
the
best
drinks
on
planet
Earth.
It
was
nice
and
cold
and
thick
and
mangoey.
Lovely.
We
ordered
like
three
apps,
and
then
we
split
a
main
entrée.
We
started
off
with
the
Sweet
Potato
Samosa
(Phyllo
pastry/
cranberry
chutney).
Elevated
samosas,
tied
up
like
perfect
little
presents.
Never
seen
anything
like
it
before.
Creamy
sweet
potato
within
the
perfectly
crisp
phyllo,
balanced
against
the
barely
tart
cranberry
chutney
underneath.
Lots
of
fun,
and
lots
of
flavor!
For
the
life
of
me,
I
can't
remember
what
the
other
two
apps
were.
It's
been
too
long.
I
am
sorry.
But
I
do
remember
they
were
things
I
hadn't
had
before,
shots
in
the
dark,
and
that
they
were
delicious,
so
the
moral
of
the
story
here
is
that
no
matter
what
you
order,
it'll
probably
be
five
star
food!
I
also
can't
find
our
entrée...
Embarrassing.
But
I
actually
think
this
is
a
good
thing.
Because
if
I
can't
find
it,
that
means
their
menu
rotates
and
is
seasonal
and
fresh!
It
was
lamb,
though,
a
whole
shank
in
the
middle
of
some
curry.
That
lamb
fell
right
off
the
bone,
it
was
deep
in
flavor,
but
not
spicy,
and
it
was
a
good
ol'
time
eating
the
meat
and
the
curry
with
the
carbs
from
the
jasmine
rice
and
the
naan.
Honestly
one
of
the
best
meals
I
had
the
whole
time
I
was
in
town.
Nothing
wrong
with
this
place
at
all,
and
if
I
ever
come
back
to
DC,
I
will
probably
come
back.
