Bites Nearby: Deeya Indian Cuisine

If you’re in the mood for something new or exotic, it’s hard to go wrong with classic cuisine from across the world.  Case in point; Indian food.  A menagerie of often healthy, spice-filled vegetables and lean meats, Indian food is really like no other.

To get your fix, check out  on East Bay Drive.  Slow cooked and richly delicious, Deeya utilizes a deep clay oven known as a tandoor to prepare a comprehensive variety of traditional Indian dishes. 

Tandoor entrees like garlic tandoori shrimp ($13.95) – roasted and marinated in a garlic ginger sauce – and chicken kasmiri ($11.95) - chicken breast marinated in almond and cashew paste, yogurt, herbs and spices – sound quite heavenly, and healthful at that. 

If the spices get the best of your palate order up a chilled mango lassi ($3.50), a sweetened Indian yogurt drink sure to cool off that spicy tongue.
