A delightful, intimate, Indian dinner in Palermo, Buenos Aires…read more For a truly delightful, intimate, Indian dinner I confidently suggest the ever-changing fixed-menu thali meals at Güngur (weekends) or the lunches (Monday through Thursday). Delightful, because each dish we tasted was flavorful, simple, and lovingly made. Intimate because there's a total of five tiny tables in a tiny space, nestled in-between the tiny kitchen, an airy dance studio space, and a charming clothing boutique, making a "little India" cultural space in a beautifully converted mansion. The clothing, the dance, and the food all intend to share the feeling of India, including classical traditional music and a modern mix named "India'n Beatles". The restaurant, which opened in August 2014, is a labor of love for chef Rabindra Nath Jana, who served us last night. Reservations are a must, and are sometimes available same-day. Five tiny tables means a limited seating. Vegetarian meals available. The lemonade we were handed after the menus was sweet and refreshing. The thali dinner consisted of an appetizer pollo (chicken) tikka marsala, mains of cordero (lamb) rogan josh and a biriyani, and a tasty, tasty dessert of rasmalai. (Hopefully we'll have the gulab jamun next time.) Remember what I said about limited seatings? One couple seemed to have arrived on the wrong day, and wouldn't take no for an answer. Once we realized this, my love and I prepared to vacate our table when the couple who properly reserved a spot arrived. The timing was perfect: the doorbell rang, we told the chef we'd take a pot of chai on the floor of the dance studio, and the just-arrived couple had a place for them to enjoy their thali dinner. An inexpensive meal, tasty and filling (and I'm not a small eater), a cozy setting, a bit of drama, and tasty chai enjoyed cross-legged on a dance studio floor. What's not to repeat?

All six of these folk are clearly regulars, and garner effusive interactions with the two staff members in the dining room, one of whom spends most of the evening at a table by herself, eating. The waiter is reserved and a bit trepidatious talking to me, I'm not sure why. He is, at the least, concerned that I have a good meal, something he reiterates several times. I'm a little disappointed with the breadbasket - most Indian spots I've been to make an effort to keep it warm and fresh. These triangles of deflated chapati are room temperature and have clearly been sitting around awhile. The sauces are good, however - the tomato sauce not too sweet, the yogurt sauce with a nice hit of garlic, and the cilantro sauce with a kick of chili in it. I ask for, and get, a small dish of pure hot sauce, which, while delicious, is really fiery, almost more than I care for - clearly to be used sparingly. I spot Shik Kebab on the appetizer list and though it's not something I often order, I'm just in the mood. And, it turns out to be a good move. Delicious little ground lamb kebabs. I don't know it at the moment, but these are the highlight of the meal. (210 pesos) Almost at the same time, I get a plate of vegetable Samosas. Disappointing. The dough is very thick and is well overcooked, to the point that cutting into these would have been better accomplished using a nutcracker than a knife and fork. The filling is a thick paste of rather bland... something - the menu says they're filled with "mixed vegetables, onion, cilantro, whole cumin seeds, potato, peas, and chili". I was expecting those sort of diced up and maybe held together by a little bit of a paste of spices, but they've simply mashed it all together into an undefined, and not particularly well spiced mass. (175 pesos) My waiter absolutely insists, despite my attempts to get an assessment of some of my more favorite dishes listed on the menu, that I must, absolutely must, have their Tandoor Chicken. It's really not one of my favorites, but after three attempts to order something else and being told no, really, I absolutely must have this dish (perhaps it's the only main course they actually had available?), I relented and decided to give it a try, along with an order of paratha. The chicken was good, no question, it's just still not my favorite Indian dish. A whole leg thigh quarter smothered in mildly spicy tomato and onion sauce, on a tiny plate, served on a sideboard, making it a mess to cut and serve. The paratha, while well made, and even tasty, disappointing only in that paratha is traditionally made with whole wheat flour rather than white flour, something the waiter admitted to, but claimed, "there is no whole wheat flour in Argentina". What? Of course there is, you can buy it at the supermarket or any place else that sells flour. Maybe just not some particular kind that they're looking for, but it would be closer to the tradition, at the least. (Respectively, 350 and 80 pesos) I like the space. Service, or at least level of attention, would clearly improve if one was a regular. The food has its ups and downs - I haven't tried enough to assert that one should order certain dishes but not others, but I have the feeling that that's the case. (Though, if the waiter's assertion that the Tandoor Chicken is the best thing on the menu is correct, then maybe no....) If we hadn't had such a good meal at Mumbai recently, and with that, and Taj Mahal so close by to it, Vrindavan might rate more visits to try more. As it is, it was fine, just not as good as others.

However after a series of pasta and jamon y queso meals, I needed to change it up. Enter Tandoor. The token Indian restaurant in the busy commercial area. Replete with sitar background music and jazzed up uniform for the server. If you're from Europe or the States you'll find things are familiar to look but lacking flavor. When asked for extra spice they added something that kicks it up a notch but doesn't gel with the overall flavor profile. Maybe the local chiles and not suited for Indian food? Wrong. You get excellent produce in BA and I was able to cook in my Recoleta apartment using chillies and make shift spices. Overall the restaurant is a token "diversity" place and it delivers just that. In London or New York this place would be a 2 star dig.

As yesterday was a holiday, I'd sent a quick Facebook message to the place asking if they'd be open for the holiday. I ended up in a chat with the owner, and yes, they were open, but he absolutely refused to take a reservation via Facebook, insisting I call - which I did, but the phone just rang and rang, even though he was supposedly sitting there awaiting my call. But, he would only take the reservation by phone... try again. I went to bed. So we just headed there without a reservation. In the end, after five people cancelled within the last couple of hours before lunch, and one joined, it was just me and one other person, venturing into the completely empty place (seven other people came in over the course of the lunch hour). During lunch, I got a FB message from the owner asking if I was ever going to call, and if we were still coming - I didn't see it until after we left, but responded that two of us had been there, had lunch, and I'd tried to call but gotten no answer... after a pause, he came back with, "oops, sorry, I gave you the wrong phone number". Why not just take the damn reservation while we were chatting online? The menu is reasonably extensive, and includes various chicken, lamb, and prawn dishes in different curries and tandoors and tikka masalas and kormas and all the others that we typically see. Plus a couple that seemed to be in-house inventions, like "Cilly Chicken" (which we pronounced as Silly Chicken, but the waiter corrected us to Chili Chicken - oh, okay, that makes more sense), and "Chicken do Díaz", which sounds like something Argentine, but the waiter touted highly as the best chicken dish. Then again, with the "do" rather than "de", it would be Portuguese - maybe it's a real dish from the Goa area which is heavily Portuguese influenced? There are a whopping three vegetarian dishes on the whole menu - a dahl made with lentils, a panak paneer (spinach and cheese) and some sort of mushroom curry. We ordered some eggplant pakoras (they were out of cauliflower ones) and vegetable samosas, which at 30 pesos per order for, respectively, four and two of them, is a complete steal, that's less than a dollar, and, they were quite good, though the pakoras could have been left in the fryer another 30 seconds to crisp a little more. The naan, available in "all sorts of flavors" (none of them listed on the menu, but apparently in garlic, onion, green onion, cilantro, and/or mint) were not quite what we think of as naan, but more like a soft pizza dough - puffy and doughy, and not brushed with ghee, clarified butter, which we're used to seeing. And, the variety makes sense, because the onion (which we ordered) wasn't cooked into the dough, but just sprinkled on top - so I guess they can just sprinkle anything. Personally, I'd pass on the naan, and only had one bite, but my companion ate it all. The trio of dipping sauces - a mint sauce (rather than the more common, at least to me, cilantro) was good, as was the chili paste. The chutney was syrupy sweet, and we left it alone after one try. With just two of us, we couldn't sample much of the menu, but a lamb vindaloo and the much hyped chicken from whomever Díaz is hit the table shortly. We'd made a point of asking for spicy. The waiter made a point that nothing they served was spicy, but they could make it so. We made a point of saying, "not Argentine spicy, but actually spicy". He made a point of saying, "okay, Indian spicy". Neither dish was spicy. Both were delicious, a great blend of spices and herbs, but no heat whatsoever. So we ordered another ramekin of chili paste - it's not the same, but at least gave a bit more of a kick. The vindaloo had the oddity of having fried potatoes scattered on top of it rather than potatoes cooked into the curry. An Argentine affectation? The "basmati" rice was good, though I don't think it was really basmati, it just didn't have that fragrance, and I know the real stuff is hard to get here - most of what is sold as basmati, just isn't. All main dishes run about 280-290 pesos ($8) including their accompanying rice. Overall, pretty place, though very dim and weird lighting (different colored bulbs in the various overhead lamps - white, blue, green, yellow). Friendly service. Very good food, not wow, but certainly better than a few of the places I've been to in town. Quite reasonable. If I lived up at that way, I'd certainly eat there again, and more than once.
