HOLD on to your
naans diners: the num-
ber of East Indian
restaurants on the
North Shore has dou-
bled over the past few

months.

Not to get too excited,
however, that only brings
the total up to four. But it’s
a start. The North Shore has
never been a hot spot for
East Indian dining.

Too bad. The cuisine of
the Asian subcontinent is
challenging, complex and
delicious.

The long-lived Flavour of
India (175 East 3rd St.,
North Vancouver, 985-5477;

Shore with excellent Indian
dishes for the past eight
years. Its smaller offspring,
Mother India (100-900
West léth St., North
Vancouver, 985-8860), is
primarily a take-out kitchen.

Indian food rans might
also recall the Tandoori
Garden, which had a four-
year run at 2039 Lonsdale
Ave. before closing in 1998.

Until this vear, that’s
been about it for curry and
tandoori aficionados.

So the arrival of Palki in
North Vancouver is cause for
celebration on the exotic
dining front.

Add to that the addition
