Aromatic restaurant adds spice and sparkle to Omaha On both visits, we were greeted promptly and graciously. English-speaking servers, some with heavy Indian accents, kept drinks full and cleared plates professionally. And the total for a weekend buffet with tax and tip for two was $30 - not Sinbad's cheap, but still not bad for an Indian feast in a comfortable setting. If I had it to do over, I'd skip the desserts and have seconds on those delectable vegetable dishes. And just maybe, if I'd discovered India Garden sooner and stuck to the veggies, I'd still be able to fit into the jeans I wore to Sinbad's last year. - Derek

Well Done: Dinker’s still thriving – and pleasing burger lovers 6212 in South O. Is Dinker’s really worthy of the title “Best Burger in Omaha”? This past Friday I brought a couple of friends, two veritable carnivores, along with me to put the title to the test. I think we were all in agreement that the best feature of a Dinker’s burger has to be the quality of the tender-yet-lean beef. It certainly ranks up there with the best I’ve had in Omaha. - Derek
New Slowdown cafe isn't fast, but its fare is worth the wait. When you're in the mood to linger, there's something enchanting about a place that moves at such a plodding pace. It's only maddening if you're the hungry, caffeine-deprived person at the end of the line or — like McClellan — the overworked fellow waiting behind the counter for the steady foot traffic that will both force and allow swifter service. To both those folks, I'd offer this reminder and advice: Good things come to those who wait. Bring a book and step aboard. You're on a slow ride to a happy, tasty place. - Derek
Lincoln eatery turns to what the earth is yielding nearby In early August, Bread & Cup was all about sweet corn and heirloom tomatoes. Now it has moved on to pumpkins, apples and sage. Kevin and Karen Shinn's 13-month-old restaurant - off Eighth and S Streets on the north side of Lincoln's Haymarket district - turns with the seasons. I left wanting to come back for whatever they might be serving in fall, in winter, in spring. Something tells me it'll be simple and seasonal. I don't doubt it will be delicious. And I'm pretty sure it will be slow - in the best possible sense of the word. - Derek
