Indian - Taj

Another one of my favorites of the city.

As a lover of Indian food, I've tried quite a few places here and there,

but always come back to this one. This place is my comfort Indian.

Perhaps one could compare this place to Dal in Samchungdong

-- I love Dal's butter chicken, but the place has been going down the last few years.

The chef at Taj has been with the restaurant for as long as I can remember

which is 8+ years.

A definite must if you're in town,

especially if you enjoy Indian food.

The Menu

The full contents of the menu can be found at their website in English,

which I'll disclose at the end of this post.

Here's a brief overview of it

Below is their set-menu. I don't recommend.

My 3 favorites: Chicken Hara Kebab, Aloo Gobi, and Buna Gosht.

However I always forget Buna Gost, and get it confused with Rogan Josh

since that's what I order more commonly in other Indian Restaurants.

I took a picture of it on the menu, so I wouldn't forget. Haha.

No more ordering "the lamb dish that comes in a flat dish"

Sweet Raita.

Ordering some type of Raita is good with your spicy Indian meal.

I prefer veggie Raita slightly over the sweet one, but their both good.

I love pineapples, so no complaints here

Aloo Gobi & Buna Gosht

Crispy buttered garlic Naan. I love the garlic naan here.

Awesome with their Aloo Gobi

Overview

Taj has several locations, but I always go to the one in Myungdong

since it's the original one, and I've never been disappointed there.

The one in Gangnam wasn't bad either, but it has been years since I've last went.

This is one of my favorite Indian places to eat at,

so I would highly recommend.

However, don't try their butter chicken.

Dal is probably better at that one particular dish.

All their staff members speak English,

so feel free to call in advance to make reservations
