Holiday memory — Butter Chicken that transported me back

I first ate Butter Chicken on a trip five years ago and have been searching for a version this good ever since. This restaurant finally delivered the warmly spiced and aromatic quality I remembered. ghee was handled correctly — something most restaurants here get slightly wrong.

Indian cuisine varies enormously by state, religion, and climate. It was the a dhaba roadside restaurant memory that I was really chasing and this recreated it. chai tea was offered and brought the whole experience together. Some dishes are attached to a time and place. This one finally restored that attachment.
