Edit: Question though: Would you consider the dishes to be 'not really that hot' because you're used to that style of cooking?
Home cooked food typically contains much less chillies/ red pepper in the preparation. It is also much less spicy and doesn't contain as much oil. But yeah, I've been eating spicy food all my life just as you have not. I may not feel the heat the next morning, as much as you would :p

You can't beat good Indian food. It's one of those things for me though that's great at the time but when your munching it down drunk at 3 in the morning but your toilet takes the beating of a lifetime the following day.
All I'm saying is just make sure you install grip handles on your toilet prior and put the toilet paper in the fridge, cause it's hotter on the way out than the way in.
Guiness + Indian = Not Recommended for the weak-willed :)

Exactly. When I was in England, the 'Indian' food was totally different, made to suit British tastes, and nothing like how it is authentically, pretty much like most cuisines outside their own country.
Most of you'll are familiar with a lot of North Indian or Punjabi food, like the Chicken Tikka, and Naans and butter chicken and the like, but there are a huge number of other indian cuisines that are equally delectable. South Indian with Dosas, Idlis, Rasam etc, Mughlai, Maharashtrian, Bengali are just a few other variety of food you should try out
Oh, and get familiarised with Indian sweets, perfect end to a perfect meal.

I have had Mughlai and Dosas. Delicious. I had this dessert once which was like a custard flan type thing. That was really good, but I forget the name.

Best indian food ever is the poori/luchi (the puffy round "tortillas" indian bread type bread) that my mom makes. I eat like 10-15 of those w/ salt and go have a heart attack in my room. Nirvana.

I could not agree more. I would kill for a tandoor in my backyard. I would also kill for a backyard.

thats the best combo on the planet.
mattar paneer, some naan and pakoras with assorted chutneys and a guiness. perfection.
not to be gross, but i have noticed that indian food smells EXACTLY the same going in as it does coming out...its very odd. usually makes me hungry again for leftovers lol

I've recently been introduced to southern indian cuisine, and I'm in love :)
