Re: desi restaurants and the community
Saddzz, desis traditionally didn;t have a culture of eating in restaurants. Even now..there is not one pakistani restaurant in NYC that offers good food, ambience and service. Indian restaurants over the course of the past 5-8 yrs have become more cosmopolitan. Going to restaurant is more than just about food, it is about sharing a meal with company, conversation and being catered to your whims. In NY we are seeing a lot of new desi restaurants that are packed with young well to do desis who demand..good food like their mama made, the setting that rivals the most poshest of venues and service that makes you wish you were in India.
