The Best Upper Kirby Restaurants
"Heralded Houston chef Anita Jaisinghani continues to bring bright, fresh flavors to Houston at this Indian restaurant. In addition to Indian street foods like goat haleem samosas and dahi poori chat, diners can enjoy thoughtfully prepared salads, wraps, and curries. For a well-rounded introduction, try the Earth thalis, which offers cups of sai bhaji, oondhiya, chaat salad, and a choice of butter paneer or chicken with naan, and be sure to visit the newly revamped bar, which serves delightful drinks like the refreshing yet spicy Jardin, made with cucumber, melon, serrano, ginger, mint, melon, moringa, and a choice of alcohol, and the Golden Mule, Pondicheri’s turmeric-infused version of a Moscow Mule. Journey upstairs to the Bake Lab for cups of heartwarming chai, colorful brunch items like dwaffles — waffles made with fermented dosa batter, and saag omelets, plus baked goods like Jaisinghani’s irresistible chili chocolate cookies and sugar-coated doughnuts." - Brittany Britto Garley
