    Also you can get a lot of food for a reasonable price. Not unusual for my partner and I to split an entree.

    I also find that my stomach and digestion feel better after eating Indian food than basically anything else.

      True, but I heard that Indian food in India is shit. Food poisoning guaranteed.

        I don’t think that’s anything to do with cuisine, but rather the vast difference in standard of living between where we live and most of India. Same is true of Mexico and many other places. Their limited resources likely going into obtaining something edible, rather than selecting from the highest quality options available and paying for refrigerated storage.

        Ofc we also have highly regulated industries of food production, transportation, and consumption, where licensing a restaurant typically involves meeting numerous requirements on safety and cleanliness. But that doesn’t come cheap.

        I go there quite a lot, and this is not my experience at all, i have awesome food there. A wise old sage told me many years ago to only eat vegetarian there, as bad meat can make you very ill, while bad veggies just give you the craps. I continue to eat both, and only get bad guts as often as i do when pigging out on kebabs in London or the States.
