Had their Kati Rolls, one lamb and the other chicken. Have to say they were excellent, balanced in taste given all the ingredients, and ultimately satisfying. Would go back for them. Don’t do the Indian JalapeÃ±o unless you can handle latent spicy-guided combustions, say at three in the morning. Still, it didn’t mess with the Kati Rolls when I ate them. Took 25 minutes to order. Crowd: ½ Indians, ½ Midtown Lunchers, and one bike messenger to provide change to the nice older gentleman running the cart.

Stopped by today and ordered the chicken over rice. While the chicken was good, the rice was mushy and didn’t have much flavor. I would stick with the Kati Rolls.

Jokes, M? Who has time? Your revealing that you have a Chinese aunt made me realize I need to put the final touches on my Experimental Ethnic Combination Babe Slave Project.

First up will be a Hispanic-Indian-Asian, we’ll see if she tastes good before mass production starts

I love these guys, I just wish that they could approach some of the fire of 53rd and 6th when it comes to hot sauce, even begging them to make it as hot as possible doesn’t even require a beverage (for me anyways, your spice tolerance may very)

Oh yeah, I see what you mean. Looks almost like a Chinese soy sauce sorta pickled egg. I have no idea what it’s called, but my aunt’s Chinese and used to bring us these delicious brown salty hard boiled eggs. Yum

Chicken tikka masala isnt ‘indian’ food per se.

It was invented in Birmingham,UK in 70’s.

Lou, Biryani are traditionally finished with a fried egg/Omlete on top.

What is that big egg in the chicken biryani? That’s the one thing holding me back… lol I don’t like eggs (seemingly boiled) enough to try that without some sort of taste description…
