Best Dishes Eater Editors Ate in New Orleans This Week, July 2025 | Eater New Orleans
"A frequently rotating Indian menu produced a memorable shrimp thali that made the reviewer "immediately close my eyes in pleasure": garlic shrimp slathered in a chile‑butter bath, fresh naan, and a sambar spiced to perfection combined to create an experience that affirmed the reviewer's decision to move to New Orleans. The reviewer writes that an "amalgam of regional and international spices transported me to India, a country I’ve never visited, through the swamps of Southern Louisiana, and right to my plate in the Crescent City." The visit ended with the reviewer leaving with "a takeout box, a full stomach, and a smile that stayed plastered on my face during the entire drive home." — Kayla Stewart, Eater senior editor." - Henna Bakshi
