Cheap Indian food is always a risky venture for some paper-stomached Yankees, but with the reputation that Tina and Mehernosh Daroowalla have built in this neck of the woods, it's naan and dal for everyone. Owners of the ritzier Indian on the Hudson, the Daroowalla's nailed their dream of a quirky, casual neighborhood joint with Karma Kafe's great, nasal-clearing Indian. They've built a legion of addicts, and the word is spreading like a fiery tandoori through the belly of Hoboken. The best way to acquaint yourself with Karma Kafe, or Indian food in general if you're a beginner, is the buffet. Karma Kafe's lunch buffet, priced below $10, lets you navigate through every bold flavor, picking and choosing your favorite fire level and flavors. At that price, the quality can't be beat, and you'll have extra money for some antacid afterwards. Once you've built up a tolerance, you'll appreciate that Karma Kafe offers unusual regional dishes, like peppery chicken Kali Mirch and Rajasthani achari lamb redolent with mustard seed and chili.
