International Date

Last night, Chris and I got to go on a date. Just the two of us! 
We picked to go to The India Palace.
A fairly new little restaurant that has gotten very good reviews.

Chris asked the waiter to tell him about the beers they had and he just said
"Taj Mahal! You want to go with the Taj Mahal." 
So Chris did!
He enjoyed it every much!
I even thought it was tolerable too!

Since half of the menu is words we don't know, we ordered some appetizers and as Chris was ordering, the waitress (in her authentic India attire) says friendly, "No, you are doing it all wrong." 
We all laughed.
She then explained how it works and gave us some suggestions. 
Here was our appetizer.
Vegetable Samosa is what is on our plate. - Crispy patty stuffed with potatoes and peas.
We also got a bread, that is like a quesadilla, and 3 sauces to eat it with: mint, mango and tamarind chutney. 
The mango was our favorite. 
We also go some Mixed Pickles. They were a bunch of different pickled things. 
Neither of us liked them!

Then came the dinner. 
We got the Dinner For Two.
We got tandoori chicken, chicken tikka, boti kabob, shrimp tandoori, chicken curry, vegetable korma,  garlic naan(bread) and rice.
Chris said he wanted to have a feast...and I would say we did!
It was very filling.
And very good!
We will be back.
Not only for the food again, but we need to try their homemade ice cream that comes in Mango or Pistachio.

And we had to get a picture of the two of us too! :)
Very enjoyable evening!!

Ryken had a nice time playing with Joel and Loretta (Chris works with Joel). 
They loved every minute. 
Thank you again!
