Bengal Express
Address: 789 9th Ave. Phone: 212/489-8036	Neighborhood: Hell's Kitchen/Clinton	Cuisine: Indian

I love how some foreign food joints need to dumb down their names in order to appease us retarded Americans--as if an authentic Indian name would fuck us up so bad we would never remember the name of the place. Ironically, I can't remember a damn thing about this restaurant. I remember getting some chicken tikka or something to go. I remember being pissed that the raita is like $2.50 extra (sauce should be included, dammit!) and I remember all my co-workers complaining about the smell when I brought it back to the office--Indian food won't make you friends. Honestly, I don't consider myself an Indian food connoisseur (nor do I consider myself a tall person or a tan person), but stuff probably tasted like cheap Indian food tastes. The chicken was probably a little too fatty. The restaurant was small and cramped, as most tiny cubicle restaurants on 9th Avenue are, and I do recall being the only person in the place when I sat down after placing my order. In any case, I'm going to keep trying to expand my horizons, despite the sometimes mediocre results. [MF]

This much ignorance about literature can only lead to hurt feelings and a whole lot of nonsense.
