Listen to this welcome from their website: “We appear before you astonishingly. To make your moments more and more joyous we are dedicating our adventure to you…We are here to bear the palanquin of taste and of tale. We are beginning our journey! Go refreshed; get exiled into the world of taste. Walk into the palace of Curry Leaves and have our fantabulous feast like a king!” OMG. Cheese and crackers this is friggin adorable.

Well, thank you, Curry Leaves, we also appear before you (*bows) humbly hungry with a boodle-kadoodle of Bengal tiger cubs in our stomach (*points to stomach) that can only be appeased by colorful plates of curry and vindaloo, can we have this dance? But, we digress.

Get ready for a banquet at the palace

Curry Leaves is the perfect weeknight or Sunday afternoon spot as food is served banquet style in an elegant atmosphere that will quickly make you forget people are pumping gas out the window. They are serving up special and unique versions of the classic like Kundapur Chicken, Chicken Korma, Malabar Curry and, the chef’s special, Ularthu, masala roasted with coconut and curry.
