Tod & I often crave Indian food, even though we’ve never been to India. We’re always scouting new restaurants, trying recommendations from Tod’s Indian co-workers, and slowly building up a list of favorites. Here are three worth visiting if you are in Tokyo.
- Darbar India, Yaesu 2-7-9 (Tokyo Sta). Lovely dosas, fabulous methi mutton curry and the best roti I’ve ever had.
- Cafe Devi, Jingumae 1-15-1 (Harajuku/Meijijingumae Sta). Fresh spices and herbs make even the standards stand out.
- Ajanta, Nibancho 3-11 (Kojimachi Sta). Excellent South Indian food including chicken chettinadu, dahi rice and masala dosa. Open 24 x 7!!!
We’re also very fond of the Darjeeling branch near our house. We eat there so often, they always give us free stuff.
Posted by kuri at December 15, 2004 10:31 PMYou should definitely check out the butter chicken and naan combo at Samrat opposite Tokyo Hands in Shibuya. Its a branch where you just buy your ticket and sit at the counter. It is the best butter chicken I have ever had….. I love curry,as a Brit, Indian food is our adopted national cuisine.
