Yak and Yetti (Somerville, Massachusetts, USA)

decent. Not spectacular. Not horrible...

Nawab (Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, USA)

An awesome visit with a grad school friend (Matt Kitchie) and an amazing Indian lunch buffet!

India Garden (Blacksburg, Virginia, USA)

My trip to Blacksburg for the Aspirations for Student Learning Symposium at Virginia Tech was incredible. Notwithstanding, this college town needs a better Indian restaurant. The tikka masala was one of my least favorites due to the liquidy nature of the sauce - they need to thicken it up and add some more flavor...

Udapi (Nashua, New Hampshire, USA)

Arusuvai (Monmouth Junction, New Jersey, USA)

Dinner with the folks! A great choice - suggested by my father to try a local Indian restaurant neither of us have been to. It was not the absolute best, but absolutely a worth the visit. I'll make it back there when visiting my folks...no doubt about it!

Zaroka (New Have, Connecticut, USA)

By far, the worst Indian food experience I'v ever had. The service was horrible - I was the only person in the joint, yet they seemed to forget about me. The food was just as bad, if not worse. I made for the lunch buffet and it was if the food had been sitting out all morning - stale, cold, just plain bad. 

I would go back because of positive previous experiences, but if this was my first-time to Zaroka, it would be my last!  

Tantric (Boston, Massachusetts, USA)

When the opportunity to visit with Dee arises, we venture to Tantric. Another great lunch buffet in the books...
