July 15th 2013: Dinner at Bukhara Indian Bistro, Boston

Today after work, I decided to meet up with my friend for dinner at Bukhara Indian Bistro, a nice looking Indian restaurant in the Jamaica Plain area of Boston, passing by a few places in town along the way.

The decor is pretty stylish,

and our table was interesting as well, covered in a layer of spices and beans.

For food, as my friend had never had a dosa before, I decided to get the Mysor Masala Dosa (Crepe spread with a layer of tamarind and coconut, stuffed with potatoes and onions), while for my meal, I decided to get the Lychee Shrimp (Sweet and sour shrimp with a tomato lychee sauce), and my friend got the Coconut Lamb Chop Curry (Lamb chops braised in a curry leaf ginger coconut sauce).

The dosa was a little on the plain side, though the stuffing did help a little, while the two curries were simply excellent. The lychees were a nice touch to my dish, while I wished I could have more of my friend's lamb chops.

Overall, a pretty decent meal, and it was good catching up with my friend again.
