Given my interest in the comparative impact of the great religions in shaping our history and civilization, I tend to be shocked and disturbed by the number of innocent lives that have been lost in the name of religion, that makes a travesty of its stated objectives of fostering goodness, civility and brotherhood in humankind. At the very same time, I am in awe of and inspired by the intrepid saga of those religious minorities who have battled and transcended persecution, adversity, plunder, and even genocide, to not only survive, but thrive and succeed like few others have. The success of the Jewish people in the Middle East and the USA and the Zoroastrians (also called Parsis) in India, are particularly poignant and awe-inspiring in this context.
A "living" chronicle of my gastronomical adventures across the world-the cuisines, condiments and cultural nuances I experience and gratify my senses with, at some of the most exotic, off-the-beaten track destinations around the world. My culinary repertoire include North-South-East-West Indian, Japanese, Thai, Chinese, Hawaiian/ Polynesian, Malay, Indonesian,Greek/Mediterranean/Italian, Cajun, Latino-Caribbean, Tex-Mex, French, Brazilian and North-African cuisine.

The Classiest Indian Dining Experience in Dallas at the Claypit
Share
Of all the Indian restaurants in Dallas, the Claypit in Addision, (literal translation of the Tandoor) is my family's favorite. Given that my wife is an extraordinary Indian cook, we hardly eat Indian food outside, and look for variety from other parts of the world.
We make an exception on special occasions to dine out at the Claypit since it is arguably, the only restaurant in Dallas serving extraordinary Nouvelle Indian Cuisine in a classy yet friendly ambiance, with superb customer service and an incredible attention to detail by the owners - Jo and Renu Saini who run the Dallas establishment and Tinku, their chef-de-cuisine brother who runs the Claypit in Austin.
