Cook the Book: '660 Curries' by Raghavan Iyer
In my early 20's, a while back now. The only Indian restaurant around for some time was the Himalaya, in Windsor, Ontario. Living in Detroit that was pretty convenient. Can't remember exactly what my first Indian meal was but I suspect it was a "curry" of some kind. No matter what it's called, there is nothing quite like Indian cuisine.
