An Indian food chain with mantra "Eat Healthy Save Energy Save our Planet" , a leader for PreventObesity.net
At Nirmal, we practice and promote 'disruptive eating.' Please read our blog at http://nirmalasramban.blogspot.com to get an idea of what we are trying to do.
Our avowed aim is to take Indian cuisine to the masses. We believe Indian cuisine can change the health profile of US. We learnt from Temptations' trials and tribulations and we want to focus on our agenda. When we say Indian food may change the health profile or be the key to fight ‘obesity’ in the US, we are not talking about any magic pills or miracle in our food. It is just about eating habits and the composition of our food combined with the benefits from the spices.
Indian food has followings characteristics:
1.less red meat and dairy products consumption, No beef and pork in Indian cuisine due to religious beliefs, Goat meat is our specialty, the healthiest meat even better than Chicken, and people here are not aware of goat meat, please see below:
