Despite being an admirer of the great Indian subcontinent, I had never had Indian food. This is because my dad is not an adventurous eater and as such we tend to eat at the same places. Last night me and my mom ditched him and went to an Indian place near us. I’m a bit unsure of how authentic the food is and also I don’t remember the names of most of them.
We had an appetizer that was mushrooms and leeks mashed and fried with some spicy sauce on top. I thought it was pretty good but it didn’t really taste like much but the sauce on top. 5/10
We ordered two entrees. The first was this tomato chicken dish, the spices they put in it were weirdly floral to me and I really didn’t like it. I think it may have been better if we ordered it with some extra spice to tone down the floral taste in it 2/10
I ordered butter chicken which is one of the only Indian dishes I am aware of. I quite liked it honestly and ate most of it. Again I think it would have been better with some spice but I did enjoy it 8/10
I also had some naan and basmati and a mango rose water drink all of these were good but I don’t think they deserve a review tbh.
All in all I enjoyed my dinner and my first sampling of Indian cuisine. I wanted to get Biryani but I was sharing it with my mom who doesn’t like saffron so I didn’t get it. Also unfortunately my mom didn’t like any of the food so I’ll have to put my further ventures on hold until I move out. Still, there’s one thing scratched off my bucket list.

Saffron's the most expensive spice in the world so it's unlikely they'll use enough saffron or even use it at all to overpower the dish, be sure to try it next time! I heckin' love biryani
Did you get any curry at all? They're great to dip naan or paratha in

Curry is up there with Biryani to try next time. I’m leaving home soon so hopefully it will be soon.

If you've not had curry before maybe you could try Japanese curry cubes or something first? Although it's not Indian curry but the basic curry taste is still there I guess, plus you can control for the spiciness (mild is not spicy at all to me) lol

The owner was Indian but like I said I don’t know how authentic it was. Guess the only thing to do is to pack it up and go to India

The first two dishes sound chinese
You should eat chicken tandoori, it's the best Indian dish in my opinion.
Not a big fan of butter chicken since it's sweet
Try chicken tikka masala, its like butter chicken but spicier

All the Indian food I ever ate was curry and onion ball things which taste great but made my farts smell like Ed Gein's basement.
