Himalayan With The Boys

Thursday, May 16, 2013

Last week at Nayada, Terry piped up and asked if CJ & I were available this week to go back to the Himalayan Grill.  www.himalayangrill.com. Thursday was selected and Henry joined us.

Henry who is Chinese raved about the sauces on the meat and vegetables, He took a small container of the Tikka Masala sauce home to his wife, Evan, to show her how good it was. Indian sauces are so different from the Chinese sauces.

We had  a small plate of appetizers, did not want to spoil our dinner. The Himalayan makes the best Samosa's. Very light and delicate dough around the potato, pea mixture.

We ordered Tibetian Lamb which is always good and tonight for some reason just tasted better than normal. We also had the Saag Paneer, Chicken Tikka Masala and Vegetables Korma.

Again our wines were good.

2006 AP Vin, Keefer Vineyard, Pinot Noir
2006 Kosta Browne, Sonoma Coast, Pinot Noir
2006 Williams Seylem, Hirsch Vineyard, Pinot Noir
2007 Vie, White Hawk, Syrah

It was good to see Sanjiv , the owner back. He was trying to open another place in Los Alamitos but ran into problems and backed away. The place was crowded tonight and people were still coming in after 9:00 pm.

After a night of good food, good wine and great company, we decided to go back to the Seafood Palace next week,
