Curry Leaf, Portland

At Curry Leaf, North Indian, South Indian, and Indo-Chinese cuisines are all represented. The menu features vegetarian and vegan favorites from each region, as well as gluten-free options. No matter the dish, the chefs never skimp on the flavor. Take the Indo-Chinese special gobi manchurian gravy, which is comprised of golden-fried cauliflower florets cooked with onions and peppers in soy garlic sauce. Or the mutter paneer—cubes of Indian cheese cooked with sweet peas and tomato gravy. Vegetarian curries also abound and include masala-spiced aloo mutter with potatoes and peas in a creamy tomato sauce.
