Tanduri Fusion, Omaha

The cooks at Tanduri Fusion teleport the exotic flavors of North Indian cuisine right to Nebraska's biggest city thanks to their devotion to authentic cooking methods, which range from marinating lamb morsels in yogurt and using authentic tandoori clay ovens. But beyond whipping up classic staples, including biryani rice and naan, the cooks prepare a lineup of dishes that gleefully buck tradition with with creative fusion specialties that blur the line between ethnic culinary styles. These include a chicken tikka wrap and a club sandwich made with paratha flatbread instead of the usual white or rye.
