Spotted at the 7-Eleven on Lemmon, after a very unsatisfying Indian buffet at Taj Express next door: “New! Werther’s Originals Chewy!” So, if they’re new and chewy, how can they be the originals?

yes, taj express is an unfortunate little eatery. there used to be a really good indian food place down by the crescent, but it closed. we haven't been able to find another good one.

hey thanks -- i like yours too. (i feel like an awkward seventh grader at the school dance.)
the best thing about the time i spent living in connecticut was that i had five indian restaurants within four blocks of my dorm room. now i have to schlep up to lbj and preston to get my chicken tikka massala at india palace.
