I used to work across the street from a restaurant called Tandoor. Fantastic indian food. I went over there at least once a week, and they recognized me as a regular. I'm very fond of places where I'm recognized as a regular - where they bring me what I want without my having to order it. That's a pretty big deal to me.
Anyways, a few years later, some of the folks who used to work there opened a new place, Masala, closer to home, and we went there a number of times, too.
Last night we went to their new location. It's a much nicer space, both larger and more intimate. The old location is a glass storefront, and this is laid out with a number of rooms containing a few tables.
We had the "Dinner For Two", which was enough for six people, at least, and we have leftovers for the coming two days. Tandoori Chicken, Lamb Rogan Josh, and a variety of other things that I can't now remember. And the mango lhassi was just fantastic. We left there full to the point of discomfort, and had two very full take-away boxes.
If you find yourself in the south Lexington area, and hankering for wonderful Indian food, you should stop by. They haven't updated their website to list the new location but perhaps they will soon. It's where Hot Moon used to be, just south of Fayette Mall.
