I like a little heat but too much heat kills the flavor of the other,
"non-heat" spices.  I do like their meat dishes, like butter chicken,
chicken tikka masala, lamb saag, chicken biryani (sp?), and a goat dish that
I forget the name of (maybe haleel?).

I find that I like their vegetarian dishes more.  Anything with "chana" in
it is a chickpea dish.  I like chana saag, chana masala (and either of
these with aloo - potato), madras lentils, and several others.  I even like
one dish that is predominantly califlower.  That is significant because
califlower is something I do not eat at all otherwise because I don't
normally like it.  Something about how they spice it up and prepare it
makes it tasty.  ;)
