[/ QUOTE ] Some of my local favorites have closed, but a couple in the area that are OK (none are great, though) are: Mayuri (Santa Clara) Amber India (Mountain View) Kebab and Curry (Santa Clara) Tumeric (Sunnyvale) more upscale than most Spice Hut (Sunnyvale) fast food, not great but decent for fast takeout Though these have gotten some good recommondations, I'd avoid Shalimar (Sunnyvale) and Passage to India (Mountain View), as well as a ton of others that we've tried once over the years and never gone back.

Re: Ethnic food thread
I would like to suggest that we have a separate thread for each cuisine type, it would be a lot easier to handle the massive volume of information that way. Perhaps retitle this to "The Indian Food Thread"?
For a well known choice, I'd suggest Saag Aloo, which is spinach and potatos, often spicy. Similar to the Saag Paneer you see earlier in the thread, but with potatos instead of cheese cubes. For a fine lesser known choice, I'd like to recommend Chana Batura, which is basically spicy stewed chickpeas with awesome puffy bread. Mango lassis are obviously a superstar here as well. I'll have to think about this.

Re: Indian food thread
The best indian food I've had was in prague oddly enough. I don't really eat out anymore so the only indian food I eat these days is simple chicken curries I make myself. Favorite dish at the prague restaurant (Taj Mahal if anyone's been there) was Chicken Vindaloo. Soooo spicy, soo much flavour. I'd have to order it "hot for white people" just so the pain wasn't too much. Also, nan is amazing. Forever meaning to make some myself.
