Finding the best Hilsa Fish Curry in the city — a personal search

I spent three months trying every version of Hilsa Fish Curry I could find locally. The variation in quality is extraordinary. The best version handled green chilli with genuine knowledge and the pungent from mustard oil result was noticeably superior.

Bengali cuisine shares roots with West Bengal India but has distinct Muslim food traditions. The winning restaurant had the right a traditional Bengali home feel — unpretentious and focused on the food. lassi was suggested correctly. Worth the search. When Hilsa Fish Curry is made properly it's a completely different experience.
