The Indian kitchen is tremendously rich, and has been fairly influenced by the colonizing countries that took part in India\u2019s history. One of most notable characteristics of <\/span>Indian<\/b><\/a> food is the use of spices, that are added to practically all of their plates. The most commonly used ingredients in Indian food include rice, bread, vegetables and legumes. Another interesting thing about this type of gastronomy are the specific <\/span>rituals<\/b> when it comes time to eat. For example, it is common to eat the food seated directly on the floor and using your hands to eat everything, usually using your four fingers, minus your index finger, on your right hand. Over time people have begun to use eating utensils more frequently, including the spoon.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Barcelona we find the restaurant\u00a0<\/span>SWAD<\/b><\/a>, characterized by the Indian food prepared in-house. <\/span>Punit Gupta <\/b>is the owner and head chef of <\/span>SWAD<\/b>, located in the <\/span>Poblenou <\/b>district at <\/span>Sancho de \u00c1vila 167<\/b>. You can enjoy their daily specials or their consistent menu items, \u00a0all of which are full of delicious aromas, flavors and textures that you transport you to other worlds. Our next restaurant suggestion for Indian food is\u00a0<\/span>Rasoi<\/b>. Here, you also find dishes that are made completely <\/span>in-house<\/b><\/a>, that offer possibilities and adaptations for all tastes and preferences.

This aspect is very important to be able to truly enjoy Indian gastronomy, since sometimes the use of spices and sauces is so overwhelming that few find a taste for it. It is helpful when these ingredients are enjoyable for all customers, including those that don\u2019t have much experience with spicy food, so they can enjoy and appreciate their meal. Lastly, we\u2019ll head over to <\/span>C\u00f3rcega 211 bis <\/b>in the Ciudad Condal to visit\u00a0<\/span>Sindur<\/b>, a reference for Indian cuisine in Barcelona. Since 2004, <\/span>Sindur<\/b> has been creating the perfect Indian food, locating the best chefs in Calcutta, importing the most authentic and glamorous furniture from the state of Rajast\u00e1n and the kitchen utensils from the <\/span>traditional<\/b><\/a> kitchens of New Delhi. They have adapted the levels of spice to European palates in general and in Barcelona in particular, instructing all their personnel in a fashion that makes the service absolutely exquisite. The result? One of the best Indian restaurants in Barcelona.<\/span><\/p>\n
