When exploring new foods we like for it to look good, taste delicious and smell inviting. We also like for the restaurant to satisfy our senses as well and let’s not forget customer service. You will not be disappointed by any of these senses or requirements when you visit Msala Indian Restaurant located at 1589 Skeet Club Road, High Point NC. You can also visit their website at http://msalarestaurant.com/.Msala offers a variety of Indian and Pakistan culinary creations. You have your choice of a buffet offering during the week for lunch or you can order from the menu. Lunch buffet hours are from 11:30 am until 2:30 pm. Dinner al-a-cart is from 4:30 pm until 9:00 pm.
The restaurant is small and cozy yet large enough to accommodate a group event if you make arrangements ahead of time. The owner and staff are extremely friendly and helpful which becomes evident from the detail of customer service which they extend to every guest that visits Msala. The staff and chefs have over 22 years of experience in preparing their unique creations as well as catering events of all sizes. The staff at Msala can handle an intimate dinner for two or a family gathering during the holidays or a special occasion such as a wedding.
When you first enter Msala you will want to take in the amazing aromas from the kitchen. One thing among many that Indian cuisine capitalizes on is the use of varied spices (some of which include: ginger, cardamon, star anise, cinnamon, coriander, turmeric, tamarind, nutmeg, mace cumin and saffron, just to name a few) to create rich tastes and aromas. This will be evident when you enter Msala and your olfactory glads start to party. When ordering from the menu take note that all dishes can be prepared as mild, medium or hot, it all depends on your level of comfort or on how adventurous you are feeling.
The buffet always includes a nice selection of items, some of which include: nan (Indian bread), butter chicken (one of my favorites - also known as mug makhani), tandoori chicken, sag paneer (which is a spinach dish - kind of like creamed spinach - which you will absolutely clean your plate wanting more) as well as a variety of other vegetable and meat dishes. The menu of course has a more comprehensive offering of both the Indian and Pakistan cuisine. Your senses will be on extreme mode as you work your way through all the culinary offering at Msala. There is also a nice selection of deserts to end your meal and by all means don't forget to order a cup of hot tea to help promote good digestion.
From the time you enter Msala until you leave you will feel as if you have step across the ocean into an exotic land to experience one of the many treasures Guilford County has to offer. Keeping with tradition Msala uses the traditional tandoor to prepare many of it’s authentic indian dishes. The tandoor is a large clay jar with an opening at the bottom for adding and removing fuel. The tandoor is made out of “chikni mitti” which is clay optimally nurtured for authentic tandoori cooking. Once the tandoor is finished a paste of mustard oil, jaggery (unrefined brown sugar from palm sap), yogurt and ground spinach is rubbed in the inside to harden it up.
As with all of my articles I encourage you to get out there and try something new or maybe visit a culinary destination that you have not been to in sometime. You never know what might have changed on the menu or what new twists the chef has discovered.
If you have a culinary discovery that you would like for me to write about, please let me know either on my blog or by emailing me at FoodFabulousNC@gmail.com. Until next time, Enjoy!
