I figured it was East Indian food. Just thought I'd throw that in.
Years ago, a friend brought cookies to work for Christmas. They were beautiful. Looked like large snowflakes. He's East Indian. The cookies had curry in them. Was I surprised.
now , I kid you not, the cook came out about a min later and looked at us, and in out our outside voice we screamed YES Spicy!
had a great meal after that.
