Like a Chinese restaurant, Namaste offers just about anything cookable in just about any preparation in the canon, so chicken can come from the tandoor -- or battered in chickpea flour, baked, fried, topped with spinach, in a cream sauce, or as a masala, a korma or a biryani.
The cooks in Namaste's kitchen have a particular talent with butter and cream, shown in a subtly rounded take on Indian cuisine where most of the points and harsh edges have been softened by sauces so smooth and heavy they could almost be French.
