Dhamaka

Indian restaurant · Lower East Side

"Famously, Dhamaka and its cousin Adda make their own paneer. This compressed collection of curds is so different than the supermarket sort used in most Indian restaurants today, which has obtained a rubbery consistency by being stored cold in plastic. Not here: This paneer, made from cow’s milk sourced upstate, is unstintingly fluffy. One version is coated with a mild but very red masala, but even better is the one that immerses generous cubes of paneer in a pungent fenugreek sauce, making for a brilliant vegetarian main course." - Robert Sietsema
