Any advice on spotting authentic indian restaurants in Europe? Especially in Germany those rarely resemble anything natives would eat, in the same vein as chinese takeout being a white man invention.

>>21757050Ain't got no knowledge about regional differences due to my only exposure being our soulless restaurants exclusively serving Tikka/Vindaloo x Chicken, Lamb, Beef which ends up tasting like boiled tomato paste seasoned with nothing but salt.
>>21757043Find out where the Indians are and ask them. We've got a lot of diamond trade in Antwerp (Belgium) with a decent Indian population involved. They're usually not migrants or second generation and upper class so there are restaurants in the city that cater to these people's needs. Hamburg probably isn't very different.Another way is to look for centres of worship. They always serve food there according to Ayurvedic/Hindu tradition. It's probably not as high quality but more "the way regular people eat". See https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_hinduistischer_Tempel_in_Deutschland. There are other places as well, like this: https://ashram.de/de
>>21757043>those rarely resemble anything natives would eatyeah germans are pretty big on hygiene
>>21757084I've actually been to Sri-Kamadchi-Ampal-Tempel Hamm our largest hindi Temple. Not for food specifically, just because it's visually stunning. Vaguely remember there wasn't anything you could buy foodwise besides candy like Ladoo but maybe the timing was just wrong. Thanks for the input though.What's your opinion on The Chocolate Line as an Antwerp native? After a couple trips to Belgium it seemed way superior to any other artisan chocolate
If you see Indians dressing up to go there
