Superkhana International

Let's get something out of the way up front: Superkhana International is not your typical, by-the-books Indian restaurant. Though chefs Yoshi Yamada and Zeeshan Shah and partner Jason Hammel (Lula Cafe) pull from traditional recipes and preparations, the menu is void of potato packed samosas and saucy chicken tikka masala. Instead, the star of the show is a butter chicken calzone, a savory pastry pocket stuffed with chicken swimming in a spiced tomato sauce. Toss in an order of chili-cheese naan and French fry manchurian for good measure. The booze offerings are just as interesting, with a collection of highballs, spritzes and cocktails, with ingredients like ghee-washed bourbon and sweet chai. Come summertime, the outdoor terrace beckons with comfy wooden benches and jewel-toned pillows.
