What to order
- South Indian — Dosa, idli, uttapam, sambar, rasam. Rice and lentil based, fermented, light, and almost entirely different from northern food. Usually the best value Indian food in any city.
- Chettinad and Andhra — The hottest regional cuisines, black pepper and dried chilli forward, and superb.
- Kerala — Coconut, curry leaf, seafood, appam. Distinctively bright.
- Hyderabadi — Biryani cooked in the dum style, sealed and steamed. A properly made biryani is a different dish from rice with curry poured over it.
How to spot a good one
- Spices ground and bloomed in the kitchen — The difference between layered, specific aroma and the generic smell of curry powder. This is perceptible before you sit down.
- A stated region — Kerala, Chettinad, Hyderabad, Goa, Bengal, Gujarat, Andhra. Naming one is a claim the kitchen can be held to.
- Distinct sauces — If the dishes look like the same base gravy with different proteins, that is exactly what they are. Good kitchens produce visually and aromatically different dishes.
