Boulder, Colorado, is said to be a mecca for Asian cuisine in Colorado, and Indian food is no exception. Thanks to the eclecticism and spirituality of the citizens of Boulder, the town is a warm haven for multi-culturalism, including Indian traditions. After a day of golf at the Flatirons Golf Course or Boulder Country Club, partake of the area's richly diverse Indian cuisine at any of the plethora of Indian restaurants in the Table Mesa section of Boulder.
Nepal Cuisine
Popular for a fully vegan buffet on Mondays, quaint Nepal Cuisine serves up delightful treats every day of the week. Stop in for the daily buffet from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., accompanied by naan and chai. Try the samosas, curry or momo (a Nepalese dumpling). Dinners are more elegant and intimate, with extensive menu selections. You will definitely leave with a full and satisfied belly.

The Taj
The Taj is consistently voted one of Boulder's favorite Indian restaurants. The owners exemplify Boulder by gearing the restaurant to show a deep appreciation for the "vast Indian culture," with Sanskrit wall hangings and ancient Indian decor. Meals are very reasonably priced, and include Palek Paneer (creamed spinach), Saag Paneer (a creamy tofu dish), numerous vegetable dishes and hearty naan bread. The view of the Flatirons is impressive from this second-floor restaurant nestled in the Baseline shopping center.
