At least at Anjappar and Appakadai I’ve asked before about making the curry dishes less spicy and they told me that they aren’t made to order so the spice level can’t be customized. I have tried a number of the “non-spicy” curries from both places but the flavors tend to be muted and not nearly as good as the spicy curries.
Ordering some non spicy dishes as @luckyfatima mentioned is something I’ve tried as well but most of those dishes tend to be more like side dishes. Do you have any recommendations for main dishes (with meat)?
Generally speaking I’ve found that northern indian food around here (Punjabi/Pakistani) is much less spicy when it comes to curries and tandoori meats as compared to south indian. Not sure if that’s also the same in India or not.
