Savor the flavors of India with a visit to Coromandel Cuisine of India. This Darien restaurant is a favorite among locals, and for good reason: its many slow simmered sauces and braised meats are well-spiced and tender. To sample them all, try the lunch buffet, where it's easy to try new dishes—and then to go back for more when you find something you like. Try the chicken madras, which gets its distinctive flavor from a hot curry sauce made with red chilis and mustard seeds, or dig into a plate of beef vepudu with its onions, herbs, coconut, and peanut masala sauce.
Don't forget to order some naan to wipe any last bits of sauce from your plate (both regular and garlic naan are favorites at Coromandel) and consider getting some spiced vegetable samosas, too, to round out your meal. Wash it all down with a refreshing mango lassi or stick with a large glass of water if you want to focus solely on the flavors of the food.
