Palak Paneer (पालक पनीर) at Standard's Punjabi Khana in Delhi, India

I'll admit, Palak Paneer (पालक पनीर) may not be the most attractive Indian dish, but it sure tastes delicious. More information here - http://migrationology.com/?p=15599 There are countless restaurants to eat at in Delhi, India, but sometimes it's nice to just stumble into popular restaurants. When you see a big crown hanging out around a parking lot or street side, most of the time you can be assured they are serving something delicious. One day when I was in Delhi, India, I had to run some errands around Nehru Place, one of the main IT shopping hubs of the city. While strolling around, we noticed a restaurants called Standard's Punjabi Khana that was serving a ton of people lunch. The crowd was huge, and I immediately felt a need to eat whatever what being served. The mostly Punjabi food North Indian cuisine served at Standard's includes palak paneer (पालक पनीर), shahi paneer, dal makhani, and a few other vegetarian dishes. I chose the palak paneer, which is a thick puree of spinach that's simmered along with spices and lots of ghee. It's basically a spinach gravy or curry sauce. Paneer is a popular form of cheese that tastes somewhere between cottage cheese and tofu - and it's extremely delicious. People that eat vegetarian Indian food often eat paneer cheese quite frequently as a source of fat and protein. Anyway, as soon as I ordered my single plate of food, the vendor quickly scooped me up a fresh plate of rice topped with a huge spoon or the curry and a massive chunk of paneer cheese. It was then self service to grab my own toppings of red onions and a small fresh salad of red onions and radishes and chillies. Overall, it wasn't the best palak paneer (पालक पनीर) that I've ever had, but I will say that it was quite good and overall it was very cheap. Perhaps there were so many people there because the food was relatively good and the full meals (at 45 - 55 Indian Rupees) were quite affordable. Though my entire palak paneer meal at Standard's Punjabi Khana in Delhi was fully vegetarian, it wasn't light by any stretch of the imagination. It was heavy and I nearly felt the need to immediately take a nap after finishing my last bite of the meal.
