One of the newest Indian restaurants that opened up in Seoul
include Ma-Indian on the east side by the popular Gangbyeon station. After running
a sister restaurant in Itaewon, the owner decided it was time to open another
Indian restaurant and I’m glad he decided to have it over in my side of town.
Ma-Indian whips up the freshest dishes daily with the chef
in the kitchen around 10. Without any Korean infused tastes, the dishes are
served the way homemade Indian food would taste, but with a bit of presentation.
The absolute must order dishes include the Garlic Nan which is fluffy nan bread
topped with fresh garlic baked in. Another must order dish is the beef curry
which is served with vegetables. The spiciness level is measurable with Korean
food, I expect a bit more spice with Indian food, but it is nonetheless
delicious. The beef is so soft and tender, it can be shredded apart with just a
spoon. This is my absolute favorite from Ma-India.
A few other mouth watering dishes include the Chicken Tikka
which is not dry at all. Topped with a bit of lemon and it will have your taste
buds kicking. Lastly, I am in love with their fresh fruit and vegetable salad
that is topped with a pink yogurt sauce. It is an extremely well blend of
fruits and vegetables that compliments one another.
Main courses average at a price of $18, but it is extremely worth the order. Ma-Indian also carries set menus for lunch where you can have a sample of all popular items on the menu. Because there is a limited staff, going during peak times may decrease the amount of service there is. Although it sounds to be a bit discouraging, I definitely recommend paying a visit to this restaurant on the second floor corner between the train station and bus terminal. Without any advertising, Ma-Indian receives a large number of customers so it does show the tastiness that keeps customers returning.
