Monday night, we went to Vij's. I have wanted to go here for a long time and I wasn't disappointed.

We started with an appy platter of curried deviled eggs (the spices are so fresh!), bell pepper fritters with spiced yogurt (so thick and juicy they were almost meatlike) and baked jackfruit (which was like a cross between pineapple and artichokes). I would definitely eat this again. Right. Now. We also shared garam masala sautéed portobello mushrooms in porcini cream curry, and then I had the beef tenderloin with ginger, onion & date chutney on mung bean and sesame rice pilaf with ground fennel curry. I was pretty much full at this point from the appetizers, but this was also really exceptionally good.
I love Vij's. And Rangoli. And the cookbook. I will probably buy his new cookbook coming out soon too. Was there no samosas? You should grab some from the freezer section next door.
