#49 - Little India Cafe (Indian)

September 2010

Happy Birthday, my Indian-lovin' food-friend! So, I searched and urban-spooned to find the best Indian restaurant in Louisville for my friend's birthday before the Casting Crown concert...and Little India Cafe was it. hmmmm.....should have taken him back to Bombay Grill.

It wasn't bad, just we didn't think it was the "best." It was fast, which we needed as we were running late, and the food was good. So, I if you want some fast Indiana (kind of reminded us of a Chinese take-out) which I also have nothing against, then make a stop by Little India Cafe in McMahan Plaza in Hikes Point.

#35 - Bombay Grill (Indian)

March 2010

My friend who loves Indian...I found "the top Indian restaurant in Louisville" and we braved it! It was funny...as we drove into the parking lot, he did a "drive by" to peek in the window and once he saw the inside was fairly full of Indians, and there were "nice cars" in the parking lot... he was up for the adventure.

WINNER! He concurred with the Urban Spoon, or Yelp, or wherever I found the posting. We put total and complete trust in our waiter to bring us his suggestion. Then the interesting question....what level of hot do you want? Scale of 1-10.  My friend was gracious...he said "2." One of the "2's" was not very hot at all...however the other one....had some heat. Then...I got him!  I asked the waiter if he had anything cooking in the back that was a 10 for my friend to try.  :D  Boy, did I get the look from him!  We tried it and honestly, THAT particular one was not as hot as the "2" we had on the table.

I wish I could tell you what we ate, but I'm afraid, I cannot. As I said, we trusted the waiter and ate what he brought. But we have been back since for the lunch buffet and everything was delicious and very flavorful! You can't go wrong with Bombay Grill if you like Indian!

#29 - Shalimar (Indian)

January 2010

Today after church, a group of us went to eat lunch at a new Indian restaurant (one of our group's favorite is Indian!) They have a delicious and very full buffet on Sundays, price isn't bad either. There is a lot to choose from and...are you sitting down?... I even tried goat! Why not? Live life to the fullest, right!?  The taste wasn't bad ("tastes like chicken") but I was not prepared for the bones. Evidently Indian tradition is to just drop the whole chunk of goat in the pot and cook it down, much like chicken and dumpling, I suppose. We had a delightful meal and as with most buffets, I ate too much! Shalimar offers four, I think, buffet bars and even had a selection of desserts. Thanks Perk, Melissa, Gracie, and Brian for adding another restaurant to my list!
