Dessert is rarely in the cards when my family eats at Indian restaurants. On occasion, I'll get the carrot pudding known as gajar halwa, but without something chocolatey to tempt my spouse and kids, they usually pass and I content myself with another bite of saag and cup of chai. Not so at
Namaste India, which I just reviewed.

There, past the onion kulcha and spinach naan and alu paratha on the menu's long bread section, is a variety that crosses the line into dessert: kabuli naan. Stuffed with pureed cherries, almonds, raisins and coconut, it reminded my kids of an edible Shirley Temple.
If that doesn't sound appetizing, consider that the filling is spread thin, so the sweetness is toned down between layers of crackly naan -- making it not just a good choice for kids, but for those like me who find Indian desserts a bit too sweet.
