. . .at our favorite Indian place in West Hartford CT. As we sat down I realized that the ambient music was a whistle. An Irish whistle. Playing decidedly Irish music. I pointed out to Tyghre that I wasn’t expecting to hear ‘Kerry Dancers’ in ‘Taste of India’.
That was followed by more Irish tunes, played primarily on flute and whistle.
I’m guessing that someone hit the wrong line on their internet radio and got Irish Flute instead of Indian Flute. It made for a wonderful overlay of sensations.
one may well stand a better chance of finding a decent chicken biriyani in Dublin rather than Calcutta… 
at least they didnt pipe in country/western.
I hope you had the curried chips.

anyone have a recipe for the curry sauce?
Has Massaman curry today. Though it is decidedly more Thai than Indian I believe. Still uber yummy!
(Didn’t you see my “Irish in India” topic some time ago?)
Anyway the main problem is the acronym, ITM, which reallly means Indian Traditional Music to the MAJORITY of the world’s population!
When I first moved to southern West Virginia, I was caught off guard that they have both types of piped in music, country and western. It grows on you.
There are different kinds of korma; my favorite has toasted almonds and cream, plenty of salt, standard spices (cumin, coriander, cardamom, probably traces of many others). I can look up the recipe later if you want.
hahaha
To curry favor,
Favor curry.
