Yuva Frontier Indian Grill: On any given night, you’ll find plenty of India natives sampling the menu here; take their cue and skip the usual schlep to the East Village. Owners Kedar and Hritu Shah go above and beyond the ordinary to deliver the exotic taste sensation that Indian food is meant to be. The enormous array of dipping sauces alone is enough to make your jaw drop. You could spend a whole evening just dunking kababs and kachauri, but stop playing with your food long enough to enjoy spicy starters and slow-cooked classics. A well-crafted wine list features fruity, artisanal bottlings specially paired to go with the food. There’s never been a better reason for deviating from Sixth Street’s sitar-and-chicken-vindaloo scene. |
