Dhamaka

Regional Indian cooking, Bib Gourmand

Hours: Dinner daily 17:00-22:00; Sat-Sun lunch 11:30-14:30
Address: 119 Delancey St (inside Essex Market)

Inside the Essex Market building, this Indian restaurant cooks regional and village dishes rather than the usual big-city menu. Michelin mentions goat belly wrapped in cedar and mutton in a clay pot. The goat neck dum biryani and stuffed chilies come up often in reviews.
