About this blog:
Get the latest food news with the biweekly Peninsula Foodist newsletter.
I am a perpetually hungry twenty-something journalist, born and raised in Menlo Park and currently working at the Palo Alto Weekly as education and youth staff writer. I graduated from USC with a major in Spanish and a minor in journalism. Though my first love is journalism, food is a close second. I am constantly on the lookout for new restaurants to try, building an ever-expanding "to eat" list. As a journalist, I'm always trolling news sources and social media websites with an eye for local food news, from restaurant openings and closings to emerging food trends. When I was a teenager growing up in Menlo Park, I always drove up to the city on weekends with the singular purpose of finding a better meal than I could at home. But in the past year or so, the Peninsula's food culture has been totally transformed, with many new restaurants opening and a continuous stream of San Francisco restaurants coming south to open Peninsula outposts. Don't navigate this food boom hungry and alone! Feed me your tips on new chefs and eats and together we'll share them with the broader community.

Fusion restaurant brings Indian pizza to Palo Alto
Uploaded: Aug 5, 2019
Curry Pizza House is now slinging chili paneer pizzas, desi pesto bread sticks and achari chicken wings in downtown Palo Alto.
The 320 University Ave. restaurant is the seventh location for a small string of fusion eateries started by first-generation Indian-Americans. The first Curry Pizza House opened in Fremont in 2012; there are now seven locations throughout the Bay Area, with more on their way.

The restaurant's Indian pizzas include toppings such as chicken tikka, curry chicken masala, tandoori chicken and aloo chaat. The menu also includes curry bowls and burritos, naan, samosas, wings and cauliflower crust pizza. Diners can also create their own pizzas from a combination of Indian and traditional ingredients.

The Palo Alto location also boasts a full bar with tap cocktails, beers on tap and a "huge" whiskey collection, the restaurant posted on Instagram, calling the restaurant "the most adventurous of our endeavors."
Curry Pizza House Palo Alto is open daily from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
