Ethnic Food!

News!!!! Indian restaurant opens in town, its called Chez-Riz, sounds french more than Indian but i guess, the owner thought he could identify better with the local population having a french name, after all who knows about India or Indian food in this white-collared,university/government town, actually its an Indo-Pak restaurant, owner being a pakistani i presume,,,, Anyway big thing for a small town, i decide to check it out on the first day, went to lunch with Tim, who is on his way to Harvard, i am sure he will find a lot more variety gastronomically in Boston compared to Fredericton. The decor is stereo-typical, waitresses are all caucasian, but the one thing that identifies any indian restaurant is the Indian behind the counter or at the cash,and the cook they have someone who is Indian with a Chef's hat on even if he/she cannot cook for nuts! back home they have food stalls which say Chinese Food the trademark being each stall will have one oriental looking guy, behind the counter with a Chefs hat on.Anyway back to the restaurant,they only had the buffet, no beverages other than coke/sprite either, their excuse was since it was the first day nothing was setup!!!!! duh why open then!, 6 dishes in all, the chicken was horrible, just coloured red and put a name tag on, which said Tandoori, the veggie dishes, trademark indian chick preas, were actually good which was the only bright spot of the visit!, on a scale of 1 to 10 i would give it a 4, well then again i am not a critic so there you go!!!!infact funny thing comes to mind, i am far from a food critic, i went to this Greek restaurant yesterday and had Italian food,pasta/chicken parmagina,,,,,, it was horrible,but then what was i thinking, Italian in a speciality greek restaurant!!!!!sometimes i wonder!! until next time!
