Call me a food Nazi, but I am one who usually prefers indie food joints. I feel that these places usually have better food, value, and/or service (not to mention a huge serving of chutzpah and attitude on the side)…simply because they are fighting against the big boys of the cut-throat food industry.

While in Indonesia, I had the privilege of visiting an 81-year-old coffee factory in Bandung which is an institution in itself. The very existence of this company is like a finger to all the Starbucks outlets around the world. Not that the owner is that kind of a person.

How would you know if an Indian restaurant is any good, especially if you haven’t been there before? Why, see if Indians eat there, of course!
