Foods of India

After a long walk in the drizzly, fall late afternoon last weekend, the Husband and I were pretty hungry. We are both big fans of Indian food, so we decided to seek out the best Indian food in Ann Arbor in our continued exploration of A2.

I remembered a girl from my ladies group saying there was a fantastic little hole in the wall place near the hospital, but I could not remember the name of it. She said it was the best Indian food in the city, but was basically a one man shop who makes everything to order. Also, it’s a little grocery of sorts? And, there is a bunch of 80s furniture sort of randomly placed in the dining area.

Long story short, we called several of the rated places on Yelp. Some were closed, some didn’t pick up because they were slammed in-house. Just when we were on the verge of giving up and eating Whole Foods hot bar after searching and calling around for about 30 minutes, I found a little place that was still open. There is almost no web presence for this cafe, so we had no idea what we were getting into.

Foods of India (or India cafe?) is located in a very unassuming strip mall. When we walked in, I knew immediately that this was the place my friend had spoken about. img_0070

Random 80s furniture- check!

We didn’t call ahead (highly recommend- it really is one gentleman making everything to order), so we waited for a bit.

But, totally worth it! Hands down some of the best Indian food I have ever had. We ordered Chicken tikka and spinach paneer with extra garlic naan.

We will definitely be back!

Bon appetit,
