![The Edison-Iselin, NJ, area is a treasure trove of Indian food. I thought we had it good in Jackson Heights, but man—there are 3 @patelbrothers in a one-mile strip there! And the eating options are endless. Whenever we drive through my job is to quickly find some dishes we don’t have in JH, call in an order, and direct my husband behind the wheel to the right spot in time.
Friday’s drive-by yielded some excellent Gujarati snacks from @pakvaandesi I’d never tried before: methi gota, these delicious fried balls of chickpea flour and fenugreek leaves, and [swipe] sev khamani, a mix of finely ground chana dal with sev, those ubiquitous slivers of fried chickpea flour, along with some pomegranate, walnut, and the freshest coriander chutney I’ve ever tasted. So satisfying.
We really need to plan for a fuller meal from one of these restaurants soon—just driving through for snacks has only left us wanting more. Until next time, Edison!

This tour was amazing! I got the customized version, and I couldn’t be happier. I felt super equipped with information on the neighborhood, restaurants, and food that we ordered, and felt like an expert in the ‘hood, all thanks to the detailed information. I also felt great about being able to support restaurants during the pandemic that were new to me. I hope that Laura creates more of these so that I can continue to explore the world while not leaving town! 🙂
