      <content>Interesting. If you assembled a meal of small dishes - the way to go in my eyes at most places, excepting steakhouses - you'd spend not much more in Manhattan than you would've in Queens. Pani puri was $3.50 and is now $3.95. The Manhattan premium on the Haleem is a full $0.04. Schmidt's, the NYT says a plate of haleem w/ rice is three dollars! Inflation has outpaced the jump in Moglai parathas between the printing of the Mina menu and the NYT review. 
 
Elsewhere, ye may gets bashed in thy buttox. A naan, a simple bean back on 43rd, is now a three-spot. That old fish kofta, an erstwhile $6.99 job, is now a full 14-f'n-95. 
 
Order w/ deliberation, and you'll escape paying 'bout what ya woluda out in Sunnyside. 
 
Have not eaten there meeeself. Any word on booze policy (i.e., will I be frowned upon taking an icy cool, smooth Colt 45 into the jernt or will I be pinched on over-priced and over-ripe Taj Mahals?)?

      <content>Angon has a beer and wine license, so you'll have to order your brews off the menu.  They were not egregiously overpriced.

      <content>They have a 4/$10 beer deal consisting of two domestics and two imports. Not bad at all, actually.</content>
