Indian. In a Can.

So, we have bee-yotched and moaned several times about the lack of a good Indian restaurant in Heilbronn. Actually, we had two excellent ones for a couple months, but they opened within a week or two of each other, lasted about a month, and closed within a couple weeks of each other. I guess good ol' HN can't support two new non-Turkish, non-Chinese/Thai restaurants in the same timespan. They were good. They knew how to make something hot yet still so tasty that you keep shovelling it in. And that is a challenge in the land of negative food heat that is Germany.

The long-standing Indian restarant is just a few steps from our house. OK, call it 1.5 US blocks. Anyway, we went there once and the food was bad. I always say, I think the only spice they use is salt. It just wasn't good. We gave it a second chance, in case the normal cook was sick or on vacation or something. Same deal. So we wrote it off. But it always has a crowd inside. I just want to crack open the door and tell everyone that they wouldn't know good Indian food if it popped up 3 times a year in a can at discount grocery store Aldi!

Thing is, it does.
And we took advantage of it today.

Too bad they don't have much variety. But it is better than the salty crap we would otherwise be able to get. *



* Strangely enough, there are at least two pizza delivery services in town with "fast food" Kormas and Vindaloos. They are pretty decent too. Too bad their burritos and tacos** blow.

** Yes, edible Mexican food is also the proverbial needle in a haystack here in Heilbronn, too.
