Golden Curry @ Blu Ginger Thai Cafe
I work in Las Colinas, so usually that means my lunch is pretty standard fare. There aren’t a lot of especially wonderful places to eat around the office, so we routinely run to Jason’s Deli, Corner Bakery, and the like.
To my great pleasure, a food-savvy coworker of mine told me to check out Blu Ginger off MacArthur. On a first perusal of their menu, I was immediately pleased to see the several varieties of curry they offer. I forwent my go-to thai dish in order to try their Golden Yellow Curry. In a word, it’s delicious. It’s made like the curry my grandmother used to make: a very familiar stew-like blend of meat, potatoes, carrots, and onions, cooked in a spicy curry sauce and served with rice. I went with medium heat and was a little taken aback by the spiciness, but I will admit that my palate is a little tame when it comes to heat. So, taking a couple extra sips of water than usual, I thoroughly enjoyed this dish. Yes, the golden yellow curry is spicy, but the addition of coconut cream sauce sweetens the dish and gives it such a well-rounded flavor. We don’t usually give “grades” out on the little dish, but if we did, this would be an A.
Price: $7.95 at lunch (served with complimentary veggie crispy rolls and rice soup)/$10.95 at dinner

Curry. As a Hispanic, I’m terrified of it. Plus, your GRANDMA used to make this for you? Wow, my Grandma didn’t come close to making this, the craziest she went was Cactus or “Nopales” in spanish. Find a mexican place that serves Nopales with eggs and see what happens. That place will be good. Either way, Curry scares me, so I’ll need plenty of encouragement/force to try it. I’m counting on you m!
I will admit Los, curry is scary… but once you try it… You’ll never go back. And thats coming from a [part] Mexi.
curry fever. – brian – buzz brews has nopales with eggs, they are pretty good.
