Anyway...in terms of restaurant food, I'd go with chicken tikka masala, chicken vindaloo, and palak paneer (all with garlic naan). For south Indian restaurant food, I'd probably go with a Mysore masala dosa or an onion uttapam.
For home-cooked food (all south Indian), spinach kuttu, various sambars and rasams, idli, and of course my grandmother's gulab jamun (seriously, you will never have better jamun ANYWHERE).

I love Indian food in general, and I second Westy, just about anything Jaysit (or Hawk or any of the local A.nutters of Indian background) mentions is wonderful. But somehow I'd always missed Butter Chicken - up until this summer. This has become my new favorite, and I'm on a quest to learn how to make it at home. You're all invited when I finally master it.

I remember there used to be a nice Indian restaurant, just a few metres away from my old apartment in Hamburg. I don't remember what we ate, but it was great.
Unfortunately, the owner, who's Indian, decided to change his restaurant and made it an Italian restaurant, which was also pretty nice though.
We used to eat Indian food every now and then, but now, it's always the same. I wouldn't mind trying this Butter Chicken you're all mentioning.

Dang, these threads always hit me during the mid-morning, "jeez... two more hours to lunch" slump.
Guess we'll have to go out for Indian today. As to my favorite dish--I really like just about all of it, so it's hard to choose. Today, chicken vindaloo and a veggie biriyani sounds good, with plain naan.

Quoting ME AVN FAN (Reply 12): I look forward to hear the comment of an Indian or somebody of Indian origin. Why? Because I am not really sure that this really IS Indian cuisine.
I certainly haven't heard of it, but given the huge variety of Indian dishes, it's possible!

To be honest, I have no idea if it is 'authentic' Indian food. I discovered a new Indian restaurant in San Francisco this summer, and they had it on the menu. The rest of the menu was recognizable and the dishes were the traditional preperations I've come to love, but this was a new one for me. I've since had it a couple other places, but I've never asked about its origins. For all I know, it could be the Fajitas of Indian food.
FWIW - A quick Google of Butter Chicken does bring it up in several Indian recipe collections, also listed as Chicken Makhani.

It's a toss-up between Mango Curry with lamb cubes or Tika Masala with lamb and coconut shavings. Add some garlic nan bread and that's my staple meal.

I absolutely adore chicken vindaloo, the hotter the better. Unfortunately, Fairbanks has no Indian restaurants, otherwise I would be eating vindaloo at least once a week.
I would kill for a chicken vindaloo with hot buttered naan, and a mango lassa right about now. Throw in some chicken pakora as well, and I'd be in hog heaven.
