So my wife and I had to make a trip up to IKEA this past weekend and we were in the mood for some good ol' Mighty Fine burgers. It was about 1pm and the line was to the door. We were hungry and didn't want to wait, even though they are some good burgers. As we drove into the shopping center with IKEA, I had notice on the directory sign an Indian Food restaurant. Located on the southeast side of the shopping center across from Mighty Fine and about 3 stores down from OfficeMax on the corner, stood TARKA Indian Kitchen, (same format as Pei Wei). The place was busy but not overly crowded. I went with the Combo Kabob (lamb and chicken kabob with grilled bell peppers and zucchini) ($9.00)

and my wife got the Aloo Ghobi (Braised cauliflower & potatoes cooked with a fragrant blend of spices. A traditional north Indian favorite!)($7.50). We also ordered some Naan and soft drinks which made the total cost of our lunch $23. 98. They sell soda from India, like a Thums Up, which tastes a lot like a Dr. P but less sweet. The food arrived at our table in no time at all. The kabobs were nice and juicy and the grilled veggies were perfect. It came with a yummy mint-tamarind-yogurt chutney to dip in. I thought the everything tasted great and will definitely go back when I am in the area again.
