What an ordeal! Looking forward to hear the rest, and especially about any new horns you may have tried.
You mentioned "shop" instead of restaurant, so are we to assume that Mr. Monette threw together an improvised Indian meal for you at his home rather than the restaurant meal you guys were planning?
As one Indian food aficionado to another, please permit me to translate your menu for the uninitiated:
Yellow Dahl = yellow split peas cooked to a consistency somewhere between pea soup and pea stew
Mutter Paneer = green peas with cubes of homemade Indian farmer cheese
Malai Kofta = vegetarian Indian meatballs in a tangy cream sauce
White Jasmine Rice = self explanatory, but didn't Dave have any Basmati on hand? That would have made it more authentically Indian, though Jasmine is also used in parts of India
Manny - was the Mutter Paneer and Malai Kofta cooked from scratch or did Mr. Monette have these frozen on hand?
Take note all you meat & potato addicts - if you occasionally eat like Laureano, perhaps you will occasionally play like Laureano! (the operative word being occasionally)
