For me it depends what I feel like. I like thai food alot. Indian curry is so much more flavorful though with all those spices. Lets not forget about the Nan -Wow!

I went out and bought a cookbook on indian cooking and even made the curry myself a few times. I bought the cardamom and the rest of the spices at an indian shop plus a mortar and pestal to grind all the herbs ( I grind them to powder form so they liquify). I even had to buy a special butter for indian cooking (forgot the name of it). I had to marinate the curry for a day before cooking it (they suggest this in the book). It was damn good. Wow. I cheated on the Nan though! - bought it from a shop
