Bombay Street Food 2

Indian restaurant · Capitol Hill

@eater

"At the Capitol Hill location of this hit Indian spot, the lal mirch (red chile curry) comes with a choice of lamb, chicken, or goat. These bring on a warming heat with a slow burn, and so does the spicy goat monsoon wedding, which packs in heat from peppercorns in addition to chiles. On Capitol Hill and at the original in Columbia Heights, a street food section includes kheema pav, a minced lamb dish served with buttered bread that’s served on the spicy side, just like it is at some roadside stalls in Bombay." - Aparna Krishnamoorthy
