It's not that bad, though it is refreshing to hear an honest opinion now and
then.  We have an Indian place across from our office, and it's pretty good.
I have no idea what I'm getting, but fortunately it is a buffet so I can
sort of figure it out.  Also fortunately I like spicy food.  In fact, our
local Whole Foods has a hot line for Indian food, which is what I brought
home for dinner later on.  Carrots and a vege dish - it looks like a white
wine match for sure.

I have a true Hon story that puts all of the 21st century Hon-iana to shame.

About 1980 I lived in Baltimore.  On Greenmount Ave., which was in the
process of transforming itself from a lower middle class white enclave to a
more modern urban ethnic mix, a traditional American restaurant was
purchased by an Indian (as in sub-continent India) guy.  He realized that he
would have to keep the American menu for breakfast and lunch, but at 5PM
switched to an Indian menu.  The lights dimmed, and the sitar music came on.

However, the Hons were still waiting on the customers.

My old dorm roomie and I decided to try Indian food, and came in one
evening.  The Hon came over, dejectedly handed us a pair of menus, and
walked away.  When she came back to take our order, we asked for a
recommendation, since we'd never been to an Indian restaurant before.

Hon replied, "Honestly, Hon, I wouldn't eat this shit if you paid me."

And that, friends, is Baltimore at its finest.

Best,
