Naan ’n’ Curry

533 Jackson (at Columbus)
San Francisco, CA 94133
693-0499
Our hunger was piqued when we arrived at the Tenderloin branch of Naan 'N' Curry by a sign offering a special curry of chilies (Miichi Ka Salan). When a lamb curry mysteriously arrived at our table instead of the karayla chicken (cooked with bitter melon) we'd ordered, Suvir bonded with the manager, who not only left the lamb as a gift, but also insisted on offering us, in addition to the intriguing chicken, a small portion of chicken tikka masala, also known as butter chicken. "We are famous all over the world for this dish," he said proudly, though the thought of the world beating a path to the door of this exceedingly grungy establishment gives one pause. (Its two rooms have elements of the thrift store and an English dosshouse, with rather casual attempts at décor, but you can't beat the prices.) Suvir was quite a bit happier here than I thought he would be: He loved the chilies ("It's a Hyderabad dish, a Hindu and Muslim mixture"), and thought that the butter chicken, boneless chunks in a thick creamy yellow sauce, was "absolutely right -- you can really taste the butter." And he was impressed by the plain and garlic naans we had, too. - Meredith Brody
