Paneer is a fresh, Indian cheese (it’s a bit cheese-curd-esque, only without that cheese’s gooey meltiness) that’s apparently pretty delicious when you grill it. Because I just had the paneer tikka at Radhey Shyam Bhatia Paneer Wale, and it was extremely satisfying.
Some dishes that you eat while traveling are good, but they take you out of your comfort zone. The taste or the texture is unfamiliar, and you need to eat a few bites to even decide what you think of it.
On the other hand, there are dishes like the grilled pork rice at Yongle Shao Rou Fan. It doesn’t ask anything of you but to enjoy it.
