Bite Club: Indian fare meets Mexican food at Tikka N Taco

Best bites: I ordered lamb tacos and masala nachos.

• The lamb was delicious and tender, complemented by the tacos' creamy sauce.
• And the nachos — I never would've thought to put masala on tortilla chips, but it worked.

Zoom out: Tikka N Taco isn't the only Indian-Mexican fusion in the Valley. Taco Papi in north Scottsdale offers Indian tacos and Basmati rice bowls, though most of the menu is more traditional Mexican fare.

• You can also try Italian-Indian fusion at Curry N Crust in Tempe. Try the tikka masala pizza. And, this being Arizona, they've got Indian-inspired tacos as well.

The bottom line: I'd recommend Tikka N Taco to any lover of Indian and Mexican food. It's tasty and unique.
