Bengali cooking doesn’t really have much of a following outside of Bengalis

I think that’s true of most regional cooking aside from what’s popularly recognized as “North Indian” and “South Indian”.

Still, there are a couple of dishes from various regions that make it into restaurant menus — I’d count Prawn Malaikari and Kosha Mangsho among those from the Bengali canon, as Vindaloo from the Goan.
