Namaste all,

Here is an interesting article about the emergence Indian fast food restaurants in the United States: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/02/15/di...ed-tastes.html

It is becoming more and more popular in America, being modeled from well-known American fast food chains and adjusted in a western manner while still representing authentic Indian food for the most part. I like this trend for a couple reasons. Indian food is much healthier than popular western style fast food that many Americans gorge themselves with. That being said, it is important to cook the food in a healthy manner and not resort to the popular fast-food tactic of preparing food in the least-healthy and cheapest manner. A rise in popularity of Indian food will also lead to an increased interest and respect for Indian culture.
