Contemporary Indian Tasting Event

Houston - February 24th at Pondicheri

It's safe to say that our very first Space City event was everything we had hoped it would be, and more! We weren't going into this collaboration blind, as we collaborated with Chef Anita Jaisinghani a year ago at her NYC outpost of Pondicheri, which has since closed (RIP!). Back at that first collaboration, Chef Jaisinghani had told us to reach out to her if/when we expand to Houston and, based on the success of that event series, we always knew we'd be taking her up on that offer when the timing was right. Just as was the case back in NYC, she wowed the 70+ new TC HTX members with her unique take on Indian cuisine. And, she filled the restaurant with heartfelt stories all night. Below are the top three courses, as rated by attendees on their feedback cards:

 

1st Place: Chili Roasted Chickpea Cutlet - with local lettuce, pickled radish, and peanuts

2nd Place: Saffron Khichri - pulled lamb shank with maitake mushroom masala

3rd Place: Duck Samosa Chaat - with mint and cilantro yogurt and fig chutney
