Some indian food is SO DISGUSTING, but some of it is great. I had some stuff called Peshwari(?) non, and it was amazing.

My knowledge of the West is limited, but some of the best Indian food outside of India can also be found in:

- Singapore
- Malaysia (Penang, Genting, KL)
- Thailand (Bangkok)

Malay and South Indian cuisine over the centuries, hybridized to result in a very unique flavor that can only be found in Malaysia / Singapore.

Honestly, the best indian meal that I've ever had outside of home cooked food was at this hole-in-the-wall restaurant in Bangkok.

Predictably, I've become very accustomed to Thai food due to my long stay here and every time I eat Indian food, atleast 4 trips to the shitter in a day are inevitable.

These days for me, Mexican food ftw

Its true.. worked in thailand for more than a year and there are a lot of indians over there.

Which part of bangkok is that restaurant? I have to go back in august.. Honestly the indian food over there cant beat the ones I had over in Singapore.. the best place to go to was this places somewhere near khao san..but even then its pretty expensive even for expats.

This is completely untrue. They make the restaurant stuff more bland so that people will actually eat it. And have you ever eaten with Indians? It knocked my socks off and she supposedly had made it less spicey because I had come to dinner!

you probably ate some indian food that had been made for the western taste. genuine indian food is amazing.

maybe you should stick to your boring steak and chips.

even some of the britdian dishes are good
balti being the best , tikka masala being poor though
although i went to a goa'n resturant and the dish i got (which was recommend by the waiter) was top notch curry

Never cared much for indian food - or for that matter, any food that relies on excessive spice to give an impression of flavor. Spice is to be subtle.

Indian food gives me the absolute worst shits. Taco Bell can't compete.

I work with a lot of indians, no matter where I go - it's a nature of IT job. Thank god we don't have microwaves on every floor at this job, unlike every other place I worked at before. It spares us at lunch time. They heat up their shit and it reminds me of my childhood - when we lived upstairs from indian family. It reeked to high heavens.

At times I was wondering if they were cooking or trying to summon the dieties. FUCKING NASTY.

And I partially agree with a comment about food making Indian's stinky. They stink because the shit they eat AND because they shower once a year and don't believe in any fucking deodorants or colone. Nothing is worse than riding an elevator full of indians after lunch. The BO is unbearable. Fucking stinky bastards

Are we playing generalisation-generalisation today? And is that why you have no flag in your avatar?

Depends...What they usually offer in Indian restaurants is Punjabi food. This type of cuisine comes from Northern India. It's usually a lot spicier than what we make at home.

That has something to do with stinky people?
And the call-centre generalisation is with Indian call centre employees, not Indians as a whole.

I love it. There are many different styles depending on the area the dish comes from, pretty much the same for most countries.

My student life meals simply rotated between indian, chinese and italian, the one great thing about British food/cuisine is that it seems we have incorporated and assimilated most foods, nothing beats a curry though after a night out!

couldn't agree more.
