Samosa from Tiffin

Item Purchased: Samosa from Tiffin
Location Purchased: Tiffin / 2536 W Devon / Chicago, IL
Price: $3.95 + tax

Review: Along with Viceroy of India, Tiffin is one of the two best Indian restaurants that I have eaten at in Chicago. Everything I try at either restaurant, I compare to the other's.

In the case of samosas, Tiffin wins by a nose. A nose that begins to run after the second or third bite. Fried for just the right amount of time, Tiffin's samosas crackle and melt on the palette. The fine mixture of potato, peas and curry warm one from the inside out and before your meal arrives, you are reaching for the last sip of Kingfisher to enhance what is left of the flavor in your mouth.

One order at Tiffin gets you two large samosas which puts them squarely at $2.00 each.

That may seem pricey, but on Devon (and especially at Tiffin), this is well worth it.

Rating: 4.5 / 5
