"When you hear your friends say &amp;quot;Let&amp;#039;s get Indian!&amp;quot; do you think &amp;quot;What am I going to eat there?&amp;quot; Well, stop these thoughts immediately! Here&amp;#039;s why: I re-introduced myself to Indian food last weekend. This restaurant was tiny (imagine ten people sitting in a room the size of a closet trying to eat!), but really unique (the ceiling was hidden beneath thousands of Christmas lights). Apparently this was a restaurant of extremes. I liked it!  With Indian music bumping in the background, I spoke loudly so that the waiter could hear my questions regarding the menu. I discovered that &amp;quot;tikka&amp;quot; means pieces and &amp;quot;masala&amp;quot; means spiced. So &amp;quot;Chicken tikka masala&amp;quot; is chunks of chicken marinated in spices and yogurt, baked in a tandoor oven, and served in a masala sauce. It was scrumptious!  I loved the food so much that I did a little research. I found out that a significant portion of Indian dishes are actually vegetarian! Yay!, a new way to get some greens in my system without miserably gnawing on a stick of celery.  So what about you CG! readers?! Tried any new foods lately? Have a favorite or unique dish you recommend others to try?   Nicole M. Lee Business Editorial Intern "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
