Fanciers of the assertive herbs and exotic spices of certain sub-continents find the works at India House. Even though Indian restaurants spider-vein throughout the Northwest suburbs, this one stands out. From the traditional Northern seekh kabobs to the shrimp in velvety coconut sauce from Madras, the cradle of South Indian cuisine, the multi-page menu bursts with authentic flavors from many regions. The spices, marinade and cooking time all weigh in on the success of Tandoori chicken, and you will find that India House consistently scores a version that is both tender and boldly-flavored. Vegetarians discover an inspired mix of specialties among choices such as the malai kofba, which is vegetables balls in a savory sauce. Try some Indian breads like Romal Rooti, a paper-thin unleavened bread. Lara Flynn Boyle types order the light platter special of chicken or fish with vegetables, salad, chutney relishes, bread and rice. - Jacky Runice
