"One of Raleigh’s most celebrated new restaurants, Cheeni Indian Food Emporium is part restaurant, part cafe, part school. Owner and chef Preeti Waas was a semifinalist for Best Chef Southeast for the 2022 James Beard Foundation Awards. The cafe-style menu is divided between an all-day tiffin section, with street food-like items such as samosas, masala fries, and the Bombay sandwich (buttered soft white bread with cilantro-mint chutney, filled with salted, sliced tomatoes, and cucumbers) and then larger dishes for lunch and dinner service. The Bazaar sells cookbooks, teas, spices, and more, and Waas teaches a variety of public and private Indian cooking classes." - Matt Lardie
