Contrary to all the posts above, Indian food is among the great foods of the
world, and Indian people are wonderful people. Two of my personal physicians
are Indian. Curry is a dish conjured up by the Indians for the British, when
the British Empire ruled India in the 19th Century. The name existed before,
but it became pretty much a British dish during that time and to the
present. It is composed of all things Indian, but was composed to appeal to
the British Palate.

Thanks so much for the great article above.

Kent, longing for our flat in Pimlico, rented, of course, and the food on
Drummon St. However we get great Indian food in the SF Bay Area.
