The British Indian food is very different from the food in Northern India. It's like the Dutch interpretation of Indonesian food: based on colonial tradition and orthogonalized since then to fit in a matrix. > But it's really all north Indian.

Well, I grew up in Malaysia, where Southern Indian food predominates (and the locals think you can make it Northern Indian by adding cream), and Pasand isn't very close. But, as I say, my recollections are several years old, and they could have improved since then. I'll certainly give them a chance in October.
