These lists make me envious. I wish Metrocurean included a "Two Bites" feature for those of us with babies who never get to eat out anymore. Mine would be:
1. Pani Puri at Woodlands (Langley Park)
2. Dosas at Woodlands (Langley Park)
(Only ate out once! (And didn't cook anything worth mentioning.))
Aw, how long before the wee one might become an easy dining companion?
I was intrigued by the 'bombay burrito', but I couldn't find it on any of the Indebleu menus. How can I get one?
From what I understand, they don't get "easy" for years. He's actually not in a bad phase now (six months), but he can't quite stay stable in a high chair yet. There's also the whole thing of him going to bed at 8PM. (Secretly, my wife and I are homebodies who use the baby as an excuse for our laziness. But don't tell anyone.)
Not sure if it's currently on the menu (do you know, Andrew?), but I found a nifty interview with chef Vikram Garg on Food&Wine.com where he mentions it, as well as his love of Zaytinya:

Hey im pretty sure its on their Tantra Lounge menu for the first level. Chef Garg whipped one up for me a few weeks ago while I was there visiting their sommelier.
