I want some naan!

Original Naan
     My life is full of flavor. All it took was a simple comment about naan and I was ready for some Chutney; Indian / pakistani gourmet curries. Yum! They have really good naan for cheap.  For anyone who doesn't know what naan is, it's a generic term for flatbread across the world. It originated in Persia. Super delicious bread freshly made. Every time I've had it its been warm and soft, easy to tear apart and dip in your curry.    

     Chutney's address is 511 Jones st. between O'ferrel and Geary st. Even being in the Tenderloin, business is not slow for them.  On a Sunday night at about 8:00 pm the restaurant was packed. Luckily there was a place for us to sit in the back. At Chutney you order before you sit. So the menus never leave the counter and you're food is started almost immediately after you sit. Plain naan is $1.00. They make stuffed naan with spicy ground beef, garlic naan, Paneer naan which is made with homemade cheese and Aloo naan thats stuffed with potatoes. All the fancy naan's are a dollar or two more.

Chutney's entrance
Chicken Tikka Masala
I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala which was recommended by the nice man that took my order. The description says its boneless chicken cooked with special Bombay sauce. Its bright orange yummy sauce. Very filling. I usually dip my naan in it.
Delicious.

If you're really hungry, order some rice with it. All this is about $12 dollars. Cheap and filling. Can't get much better. I've looked this restaurant up on yelp.com and found nothing but great reviews. So I'm not the only one that thinks this place is all that. They also cater to you! That can come in handy when you want to bring this food to your home.

Again, I recommend this place to everyone ready to try a great Indian / Pakistani restaurant. Authentic and flavorful Chutney knows what's up. Go try it.

Thanks for reading.
Happy eating.
