odd compliment
Last night, I went to Bombay Mahal in Waltham with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
fennel, on the recommendation of a coworker of his. The food was great -- you should all go, right now, even if you don't live in Boston -- but I'm not actually here to describe the things we ate and their flavors, good as they were. It was the texture of the food that amazed me. Have you ever gone clothes shopping by closing your eyes and walking around the store with your fingers extended, and choosing the items that make you stop in your tracks? This was the culinary equivalent of that.
(Also of note: they mean it when they spice things. We got two 'medium'-spiced dishes, and both were more like what most random Indian restaurants around here would call 'hot', or at very least 'medium-hot'. According tofennel's coworker: "mild still has a kick, but not enough that anyone would complain". Just FYI.)
