My only problem with Indian food. Whenever I try a restaurants it's shit. But when my coworkers would bring in a feast on Diwali, it was my favorite time of year.

I can't find any restaurants that taste even similar to their home cooked meals.

Yeah, the same goes for Korean food. I think a lot of it has to do with the quality of produce. In the west produce is often picked before it's ripe because we have to ship it hundreds of miles. They also tend to change the spices and sweetness to accommodate western pallets.

The best indian food I've ever had from a restaurant was from a truck stop in the middle of nowhere off I-80 in Nebraska.

I don't know what country you're in, but lots of Indians in the UK are actuall run by Bangladeshis and the food is a bit middling. Once you find a good one you become loyal.

Dude fuck off. Bengali cuisine is great.

The food those Bangladeshis serve aren't generally Bengali cuisine, but rather what sells.

I'm sure actual Begali cusine is fantastic. Bengalis half arseing Indian dishes not so much.
