Okay, so I have plenty in my journal that I need to transcribe to take you all on my Indian journey but I had to laugh heartily at getting THIS today from Groupon.
Fantastic! And for a restaurant we love to go to for lunch at work.
But someone let the owners get creative with writing their copy for the daily deal. Lost in translation? You decide. Here's the text that came with the offer today:
Lastly, I've been to this restaurant several times and unless the scenic lake views are new paintings on the walls, there's only a retention pond across the street by the Wonder Bread outlet store.
I love it. So there is the arc in my blog. Two entries ago was about the Groupon craze and I've brought a little bit of India into the mix.
Therefore, "Look with your glazing eyes soon to the wondrous words of a babbling idiot who will beautifully summarize his daily, mysterious adventures in the homeland known as India. It will be material you can sink your molars into like a masticating big black bear in the open spaces of Montana" ;-p

"Indian food is quickly becoming one of America's most popular ethnic cuisines, as evidenced by the upsurge in new restaurants and the nationwide fervor over chutney trading cards. Get a seat on the bandwagon with today’s Groupon: for $20, you get $40 worth of Indian cuisine at the Indian Harvest Restaurant, located in Naperville.
The restaurant's expansive menu takes taste buds on a tour of India’s famous, mouth-drenching dishes. Rev up jowl bones with appetizers, including dahi bhalla, soft lentil puffs soaked in spiced yogurt and topped with coriander leaves ($4.95), or vegetable samosas ($3.50). Lamb specials such as gosht chili masala, cooked with hot spices, herbs, and green chilies ($13.95), and tandoor -roasted items that include tandoori chicken ($14.95), let patrons use their canine teeth for more than snarling at mail carriers. Herbivores can dive into vegetarian dishes, such as the eggplant-rich baghara baingan ($10.95), and employ naan ($2) as a makeshift visor while catching scenic lake views from the dining room."Now, I need to know what this nationwide fervor over chutney trading cards is!! Also, given my weight, I'm not a fan of the world jowl but hey, I get what you're groovin'. But when you start digging into my canine teeth, I need to stop you right there because I only snarl at the mail carrier when he delivers me bills. I'll leave the rest of the time for snarling by my beloved golden retriever.
