"In its exploration of southern Indian cooking, Semma from Unapologetic Foods, with chef Vijay Kumar, who was born in Tamil Nadu, is unlike anything our city has seen. Whether you stray into unfamiliar territory — the goat intestines served on a banana leaf are an example — or stick with curries of venison or lobster tail, you will enjoy subtle spice combinations and high-quality ingredients. The triangular gunpowder dosa is the best around." - Robert Sietsema
