"Run by Rashmi Bhattachan and Sarala Kattel out of a Northeast Minneapolis kitchen since 2010, Gorkha brews masala chai fresh daily using a black CTC tea from the Assam hills; the tea is boiled with crushed cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, and ginger, then finished with a frothy addition of whole milk and simmered until it develops a rich reddish-brown color — a perfect complement to their crispy veggie samosas." - Ali Elabbady
