Indian food in Bangkok

Not a great big post, but I wanted to share with folks a great little Indian restaurant we found here in Bangkok. It is just off of Sukhumvit Soi 8--once you start down you'll turn into this dingy little alley on your left and it is towards the very end on the right. It is called Namuskaar, and it was wonderful. We both had the non-veg thali and it was served rather plainly, with no great pomp. There was a chicken curry, vegetables, yoghurt, rice, papadum, and naan. It came with gulab jamun for dessert, and we finished it off with masala chai. Including a separate water, lassi, and soda that we ordered the meal came to a very reasonable 805 baht--about USD $26. That's probably about what we'd each pay at a restaurant in the states; the thali themselves only came to about $8 a person.

We recommend it to anyone visiting Thailand looking for a nice Indian restaurant with a family friendly atmosphere.
