I’m obsessed with all things Indian – the clothes, the weddings, the dancing, Bollywood, but especially the food. I think I could happily eat curries, tikka masalas, kormas and naan bread every day for the rest of my life. But I won’t, because I wouldn’t want this delicious, bold food to lose its appeal.
The best Indian restaurant I’ve been to so far (unfortunately hasn’t been in India since I’ve yet to go) is in Sandton City, and is called The Raj. The greatest way to enjoy the food here is to order a bit of everything and share it among the table. The Raj has great atmosphere, amazing service, and the food is just out of this world! It’s a bit on the pricey side, so don’t feel bad for splashing out; it’s that good.
Another Indian restaurant closer to home (as in a two-minute drive for me) is Shahi Khana in Norwood. It’s a quaint restaurant and take-away joint on the corner of Grant and William streets. The décor is bad, cheesy even, but the food is exquisite and doesn’t match the low prices. You can get a huge amount of chicken briani for under R60! It takes me two days to finish mine. Shahi Khana’s chicken tikka masala is almost orgasmic. I didn’t want to offer more than two bites away.
