NY BEST PIX BEST INDIAN FOOD IN QUEENS

Hope you all are having a great Labor Day. Last week when I was checking out the best Cuban Sandwiches in Queens, I happened to drive down 37th Avenue in Jackson Heights.
Believe it or not, in all the years I've covered NYC for WPIX, I have never been here.

I couldnt help but notice the liveliness and the energy of this small neighborhood that is known as "Little India." I later found out 200,000 Indian Americans shop and eat here regulary.

I am an Indian food lover, especially Naan and Chicken Tiki Masala. So I grabbed my cameraman and went on the hunt for the best authentic Indian Food.

Our first stop is "Delhi Palace." The restaurant has been here for 35 years and locals can't get enough. We watched them make Naan bread by sticking the dough on the side wall of a mud oven.

Down the block you can find "Jackson Diner," which is the most well known among critics and foodies.. The Singh family has owned the restaurant since 1983, and what makes the food consistant is that they have never changed their recipes.

Newcomer "Delhi Heights" is a more hip, sit down dining experience, which has live music on weekends. It is a nicer dining experience for those seeking an intimate or a romantic meal.

Bottom line, this was the best food experience I've ever had, so much so, that I couldn't pick a favorite as they are all delish.

My advice, even if you don't live in Queens, take a trip to Jackson Heights and grab a meal.
You will leave very satisfied and most likely will want to come back again.
My mouth is watering just by writing this blog.
