\"Chote<\/a><\/p>\n

This post is in collaboration with Chote Nawab.<\/em><\/p>\n

Our second stop of the Curry Hill Crawl was Chote Nawab<\/a>, which specializes in kebabs and dum biryani rice pots. It was very lively as soon as we stepped inside. Kinda felt like a tapas bar with a touch with Bollywood. There were communal tables and mason jars for water, prompting someone comment on this being the hipster Indian restaurant.<\/p>\n

\"Chote<\/a><\/p>\n

Our first dish was the Baingan Dahiwala. Eggplant layered with a tamarind yogurt sauce and cilantro. The eggplant was nicely done, tender, but not mushy. Paired nicely with the sweet and sour tamarind yogurt sauce.<\/p>\n

\"Chote<\/a><\/p>\n

Indian food isn’t always the most photogenic, but believe me when I tell you that the Achari Mushroom was amazing. The mushrooms were very meaty, and I believe they might be pickled. The creamy curry sauce was delicious. If I come back here, I’m getting this for myself.<\/p>\n

And then there was the Aloo Paneer Bharwan. You can’t go wrong with potatoes stuffed with cheese. The heat sneaks up on you. Tasty when you brighten it up with a squeeze of lime.<\/p>\n

\"Chote<\/a><\/p>\n

After a mixup where the servers accidentally gave our drinks to someone else at the table, I finally had a taste of the rose lassi. Pink and floral, reminded me of cotton candy. I prefer it more than the typical mango lassi. There were a couple more vegetarian dishes on the event menu, but our table didn’t get to taste them as it was time to move on to the next location.<\/p>\n

Note: This post is in collaboration with Chote Nawab. I was invited as a guest to this event and received a complimentary meal. This was not in exchange for a positive review and all opinions expressed here are my own.<\/em><\/p>\n
