Om

Tonight we headed up to Samcheongdonggil, which reminds me of a college town in northern California with all of its eclectic shops and restaurants. We stopped at an Indian/Nepali restaurant called Om for dinner, and had a delightful meal.

Their cups, glasses, and silverware were an interesting copper/stainless mix that I've not seen in restaurants before.


We splurged on a bottle of wine. They served it in these glasses which did leave a slight metallic taste.


We ordered mutton korma (dish in front) and chicken curry (dish in back).


Garlic naan. One of the best things made ever. Nothing better than dipping naan in the curry sauce. I'd be happy with just the naan and the gravy.


For the two of us, two dishes with a dish of rice and 3 naan was just perfect. The spice level was just right for me, a confirmed wimp when it comes to spicy food. There was a slight kick, but it wasn't tear inducing, and it was flavorful. The mutton korma had a slightly sweet spicy taste to it, which I'm not sure was cardamom or not. This meal reminded me of a friend's description of Indian food one time, where she said she had no idea what she ate other than orange goo and green goo, but it was all good. We had orange goo, and it was very tasty.
