Eater Boston's latest column explores standout dishes, spotlighting the new restaurant Ssaanjh and its regional Indian offerings. Opened recently, it has gained popularity quickly, with a packed dining room on a Wednesday night. Owner Manju Kaushal aims to enhance Boston's Indian cuisine landscape, and her laal maas curry impresses patrons with its rich flavors. The column also features Brick Street Bagels, emphasizing their excellent bagel-making, particularly the rosemary sea salt variety with a flavorful cream cheese. Overall, these recommendations highlight exciting dining options in Boston.
Owner Manju Kaushal's goal for Ssaanjh (which means "friendship" in Punjabi) is to shine a finer dining light on regional Indian dishes in Boston.
The laal maas - a thick, rich Rajasthan curry made with a sweet chili paste served in a bowl with cubes of slow-cooked lamb - warmed me to my core.
For everyone who keeps whispering that Boston's Indian dining scene leaves much to be desired, get yourself a reservation at Ssaanjh, stat.
These bagels hit those marks, but the toppings were where Brick Street really excelled - the toasted rosemary and generous sea salt provided pleasant little punches of saltiness.
