  I've been in Texas for a long time and I've had Swiss Chalet and Boston Market the past week so I felt like something not too heavy, reasonably quick, and not more rotisserie chicken.  I had two types of food in mind: Thai or Indian.  My friend and I agreed on Indian because it was close:

  

  A nice overlooking window.  Too bad it's not overlooking much as the street is very boring:

  

  Poppadum flat bread:

  

  Crunchy and resemble taco shells but lighter.  I'm glad the poppadum flavour isn't too strong.

  Mango Juice:

  

  Nothing unusually.  It wasn't watered down and it's good they didn't add ice.

  Madras Chicken:

  

  Flavourful and priced at $12.95

  Chicken Tikka Masala:

  

  Lots of tomatoes, good amount of chicken, and a savory sauce makes the Chicken Tikka Masala is a good dish with very little vegetables.  At $12.95, it is an average price for dinner.

  This restaurant is pricer than Chaat Cafe and doesn't taste too much better.  The ingredients are more fresh, less processed than Chaat Cafe.  There are more pieces of chicken as well.  Both restaurants are not overly oily so you won't get a dish full of oil after your meal.  Service was decent but nothing really stood out.  They suggested drinks a couple time but were not overly helpful with suggesting dishes.

  Eric Tummy Points: 2.5 out of 5
