Bhindi Bazaar Description:
Bhindi Bazaar is the kind of useful restaurant the Back Bay should embrace. It's at the tip of Newbury Street, right where the chic shoppers and browsing students converge. As such, it can't be too expensive or esoteric---and it is not, yet neither is it boilerplate. While the menu lists plenty of masala-this and saag-that to please mass audiences, it also works to nudge the populace forward in their appreciation of a multifaceted cuisine. The subcontinent is an enormous place and the menu reflects that by taking a survey-like approach. Seafood dishes, lush with coconut milk, from Coastal areas like Goa; tangy tandoors from the Punjabi North; curries from Hyderabad; and crispy fried street food from New Delhi are all represented. Gentle staff help diners navigate the selection. The room imparts comfort with plenty of cushions and warm tones of orange and copper, but it musters chic for those seeking it with some sleek curves as well. Execution can be uneven, but a trip through this bazaar is usually a worthy one.
