"You might not expect to find authentic Indian cuisine from a Michelin-starred chef between an Outback Steakhouse and a Pokeworks in the not-so-cute part of Wilton, but that’s Fairfield County for you. Go to Athithi for lunch on a light “work from home day” and prepare to be blown away. Start off with the tangy-glazed lasooni gobi, which is kind of like buffalo cauliflower’s Indian cousin, and the samosa tasting—we bet you’ll be fighting your dining partners over the last of the gooey jalapeño cheese ones. $14 will get you a generously portioned lunch special to satisfy a craving for old faithfuls like saag paneer or butter chicken, which are some of the best versions we’ve had of these dishes to date. Most dishes on the menu travel well, so this is also a great takeout spot when you’re in the mood for a cozy night in. photo credit: Sam Schwab" - Chloe Zale
