Restaurants Bangladeshi restaurant opens in L5P

We visited the new Niramish (1146 Euclid Ave.) in Little Five Points a few nights ago. This is a mainly Bangladeshi restaurant and you'll likely encounter some dishes you've never had before.
Above is a plate of vegetable fritters cooked in the Balti style. This is a style of cooking that originated with Pakistani immigrants in Birmingham, England. We also had a rather strange pasta dish featuring a very sweet, very creamy tomato sauce.
Most of the food was good and a departure from the usual Indian fare around town. There are lots of vegetarian dishes and many made with fish, but no meat. You won't miss it.
I'll have more to say later this week in "Grazing."
