Have you ever gone for Indian food.. in Beijing?\u00a0 For whatever reason, a lot of people that I know here have never eaten Indian food before.\u00a0 As someone who will never turn down Indian food, this is news to me.\u00a0 The way that someone’s eyes light up upon their first taste of \u7f57\u6839\u7f8a\u8089<\/strong> (Lamb Rogan Josh) immediately removes any previously held \u504f\u89c1<\/strong> (biases) that may have existed before.\u00a0 Although normally Lamb Rogan Josh is cooked in oil, the texture of the meat is like that of \u70e9\u8089<\/strong> (braised meat).\u00a0 Moreover, the type of \u8fa3<\/strong> (spice\/spiciness) is unfamiliar to the Chinese palate as it is hot rather than numbing.\u00a0 When a friend of mine had cottage cheese cubes in \u83e0\u83dc<\/strong> (spinach – as in palak paneer, anyone?) she remarked that the flavor was \u602a\u602a<\/strong> (weird) and happily continued eating.\u00a0 Although there are those who are uncertain about the \u5473\u9053<\/strong> (flavor), they hold that \u5403\u8d77\u6765<\/strong> (after you start eating it) Indian food is pretty much one of the best things ever.\u00a0 My friend, convinced, asked to \u6253\u5305<\/strong> (doggy-bag it) and has even considered regularly ordering \u5916\u5356 <\/strong>(delivery).<\/p>\n
