Dinner at Ajanta Restaurant, Berkeley, CA
We met Alexis' sister and brother-in-law for dinner in Berkeley at a place they really like. And it was quite good.
Crab Cakes $6
Indian crab cakes are certainly an interesting dish. They were a bit too potato-y, but the acidic sauce was quite a nice contrast.
Chicken Tikka Masala $12
They used white meat and it was dry, as is usual with white meat. The sauce was good though.
Saag Paneer $9
This was really good. The paneer was soft and obviously homemade--a delight. The saag was very smooth and had great flavor.
Garlic Naan $2
The naan was pretty good. The garlic was baked inside, which was nice because your fingers didn't get very dirty.
