Gary’s Q&A

Listener question & Gary’s response · Transcript passage

Michaela Clarke asks The word “curry” can describe many different dishes, sauces, and spices around the world. Do you have a favorite type and can you recall the best curry you’ve eaten in your travels? Maybe curry is worth its own episode!

First of all, you are absolutely correct that Curry would make for a great episode.

You are also correct that the word curry can describe many different dishes, all of which originate in South Asia.

My go-to meal when I go to an Indian restaurant is lamb masala, usually with a side of dal and some plain nan.

My favorite curry experience was probably at a very affordable restaurant in Singapore that catered to Indian workers. All the meals were served on banana leaves, and there were no utensils.
