Curry Up Now, which started as a food truck in California, is open at The Grandscape. We stopped by to try their Naughty Naan and other dishes.
Rana and Akash Kapoor began serving Indian food in 2009 from the back of a broken-down taco truck in California. Thirteen years later, they proudly call themselves the “biggest and baddest” Indian food brand in the U.S., with over 16 brick-and-mortar locations. Now with the opening of their newest location in The Colony, North Texas residents get to see for themselves.The menu here isn’t even remotely like that of your typical Indian restaurant.
For starters, street tacos come three to a plate for sharing and are served on corn tortillas. The real originality of this dish comes from the ingredients: tacos are filled with curried chicken and topped with pico kachumber, a mix of diced tomatoes and tangy Indian pickle. While it definitely looks like a typical taco, the flavors inside say otherwise.
If you prefer your meal wrapped burrito-style, go for Curry Up’s signature burritos, which come filled with rice, sliced veggies, and your choice of proteins and sauce. If you’re feeling adventurous, try the “Punjabi by Nature,” a burrito with a rich spinach curry, garbanzo beans, rice and onion. The lamb burrito is another customer favorite, made with curried lamb meat, potatoes and a whole lot of rice.
No matter what else you get here, ask for an order of the Naughty Naan, a dish that’s advertised as an Indian pizza. The base of the pizza is a fluffy slice of naan bread, slathered in Curry Up’s signature tikka masala and topped with shredded mozzarella, caramelized onions and jalapenos. Spinach enthusiasts can enjoy the saag paneer Naughty Naan, a similar pizza-style dish that comes with a thick spinach curry in place of tikka masala.Your meal here is bound to be filling.
