Dinner and a Movie

Went to what is now my favorite Indian restaurant last night.  It's called Coriander and it is in Voorhees, NJ.  I told the owner that it was better than any Indian I have had in New York City.  She explained they use the freshest ingredients, avoid heavy creams, and don't try to overpower the food with spice.  I asked her if that meant that they were trying to appeal to an American palate and she said, "no."  She explained that not all locales in India eat spicy (hot) foods.  I can't wait to go back and try something else at this affordable restaurant.

I also saw Crazy Heart.  I thought the theater would be empty but was wrong.  Like me, there were still many people who hadn't seen this movie.  I enjoyed it but thought it was very sad, even if there was redemption in the end. 

I really liked the music, too, and wondered if Jeff Bridges really sang the songs; it sure looked like he did.  After looking at the soundtrack listed on Amazon.com, I learned he did sing.  I was surpised to learn that Colin Farrell also sang.  I think I'm going to order the soundtrack.
