Lahore Tikka House

What a busy weekend! We did a lot of visiting over the weekend as well as eating.

Saturday morning we met a couple of friends at a restaurant called School for brunch in Liberty Village. Great atmosphere and pretty good menu, very accomodating. I had an omelette and was able to substitute a few things (which was rare for any restaurant during busy breakfast or brunch hours!) and had a delicious arugula salad and fruit salad instead of the homefries!

In the later afternoon we were over at a friends for a birthday celebration and had some nibblies. Afterwards we decided since we were close to Little India we would go out for dinner. We saw one restaurant that was really busy and had a large patio... people looked happy so we thought we'd try it out. One of our rules about trying random restaurants is that they would have to be busy and look like people were having fun. So Lahore Tikka House definitely fit the bill! Service was quick - I got my usual palak paneer and Chris had Karahi Gosht (lamb) - it was delicious - and we had fun!

I have a great little recipe for palak paneer but no matter how many times I've tried, it never tastes as good as when I order it from a restaurant. Some things are just better left to the experts!
