Thanks to the English colonizers and to the American clipper ships of the 19th Century, the curries of are popular throughout the Western world.  This Indian meals begins with crispy samosas, with the main focus on ’s favorite, Chicken Tikka Masala.  Tender breast of chicken, chiles, tomatoes, chiles and garlic enrich the rosy, creamy sauce.  Conclude with a touch of chocolate with subtle spice.  Two classes are being offered.

Menu
