I swear there's probably more Indian restaurants in the UK than there is in India. Where I suppose they are just called restaurants.

the entire spiciness of the world is concentrated along a single road in Balham

Fun anecdote: I had an indian colleague who could not handle spicy food. He just doesn't come from that one single region that shoves chilli onto everything.

Opened my eyes to the idea that indian food being spicy might be as misleading as english food adding mint to everything (blame: Asterix comics in europe)

The south Indian is where the spice is. North Indian is where the partying is.
