    An Indian and Nashville fusion counter in the Dwight neighborhood near Yale. The same CTbites fried and hot chicken sandwich guide highlights the Murga Masala Sandwich, which layers Nashville hot chicken seasoning with a house-made tikka masala sauce, vegan spiced ranch, coleslaw, pickles, and mint chutney on a potato roll. It is a genuinely distinct take on the fried chicken sandwich, blending two spice traditions on one bun. Order the Murga Masala.

  • Fried Chicken

    Indian-spiced Nashville hot chicken on Howe Street from owner Romy Singh, formerly of Pataka. Both CTbites and The Infatuation frame it as Nashville heat brightened with Indian flavors. Order the Murga Sandwich, the Badmaash Mac and Cheese, and the Masala Fries with mint chutney; the Murga Sauce comes in escalating heat levels. The Indian-spice angle sets it apart from the straight-Nashville shops nearby.
