I thought my mother was the best cook of all time. But since I visited Palace of Asia in New Jersey, I changed my opinion about the best cooking. My family had to travel a long distance to savor the food at Palace of Asia. When I heard about the Indian Restaurant, Palace at the Ben which opened in Philly, I was thrilled. Now I do not have to travel far and have the most delicious food which is owned by the same owner as Palace of Asia in New Jersey.\r

I recently visited Palace at the Ben with my family and it was the most exciting experience. The decor was out of this world. It was very tasteful. The dining room is done right-down to the crispy white tablecloths and the fancy stemware. \r

The appetizers were great, especially, the harabhara kabab and chicken tikka masala. The navratan korma was to die for. Entrees like shrimp nargisi and haryali chicken sauce were delicious. \r

After the heavy meal we were not planning to have dessert, but Palace has the best falooda. I always thought that India could only make the best Falooda, but I was wrong because Palace at the Ben also has the most delicious falooda. My son had chai creme brulee and he loved it. My daughter-in-law, who loves chocolate, orded fudgy almond cake draped in chocolate glaze, and it was to amazing! Everything was so good that this Philadelphia trip was worth making. The overall price reflects the fine dining atmosphere.
