Yesterday I was treated to lunch at DC's latest Indian addition, Cafe Spice, located at 1025 Vermont Avenue, NW, in the heart of lawyerland. Though my father long ago taught me to hold chains with contempt, I found the two curries I tried (the ubiquitous Vegetable Curry and a tomato-based panir curry) to be both fresh and tasty. I think there were about 10 to choose from and, honestly, it didn't feel chain-y at all. The $6.99 combo portions (2 curries and basmati rice) weren't huge, but that just gives you the opportunity for once to leave an Indian joint without feeling like you ate a cow (ahem).For a real review of their Gaithersburg locale click HERE to see what Tom Sietsema had to say a few years ago.
