I've Got the Fever for the Flavor of....well, Flavors!

Bahr fam, back again! Bringin' tales of a little Indian- cuisine that is!

Tonight we went to Flavors!  Having already been there a few times for dinner and many times for lunch,  I was feeling pretty certain that this would be a big hit with the whole family and it didn't disappoint!  As a group, it was our best experience so far.

The restaurant started us off with a plate of Pappadam accompanied by onion and potato slices that were breaded and deep fried.  It was very difficult to have only a taste of these. I wanted to eat them all.

Ken had the Shrimp Tikka Masala this time. He gave it 4 smiley faces! He said it had very low spice level and almost a sweet taste. He liked that the onions and peppers were fully cooked and said the tomatoes were good.  He didn't enjoy having to pull the tails off of the shrimp. All in all, a big win for Ken! Yay!

Ruth had her usual, Chicken Tikka Masala.  She said it was sooooooo good! It had a sweet and tangy sauce that delighted the taste buds.  She gave it 4 smiley faces and said it is the 2nd best Tikka Masala she's had so far.

Gabe also had his usual, Chicken Tikka Korma.  But THIS time, Gabe got a surprise!  Instead of chicken, the restaurant inadvertently served him lamb.  It was still very good.  The Tikka Korma sauce was so sweet and yummy that even I couldn't stop eating it. Gabe also ordered some buttered Naan.  No one else tried it, but he ate it all so it  must have been good. 

I ordered the Tanduri Mixed Grill.  It was a heaping plate of meat!  It had large chunks of chicken breast, a few chunks of lamb, two chicken legs, one chicken thigh, and two shrimp.  It was served atop a bed of perfectly sauteed onions, and sprinkled with fresh cilantro and two juicy wedges of lime. It looked very much like an order of fajitas. It was very good!  I gave it 3 smiley faces, though, because most of the meat was a little drier than I like it.

And finally, the restaurant served us a complimentary desert.  Some kind of Mango pudding.  It was very sweet and had a strange texture so I didn't eat it, but everyone else gobbled theirs up quickly. Yay for Flavors! A winner with the whole family! (Kind of made for a boring blog though, eh?)
