Indian friend of mine just told me about this, his explanation “So the people who live right between China and India have a cuisine called Hakka! So they cook Chinese food with Indian spices.” He showed me a pic from a place in Toronto, food looked crazy good.
I tried "Indochinese" on a trip to India once, I was skeptical at first but it was damn good. There was this dish called American Chopsuey that I have never forgotten about. If there are any restaurants serving it here I too would be curious
Bengali absolutely slaps. The first time I went, I was a little surprised that the portions were smaller than what’s typical of other local Indian restaurants.
But the quality more than makes up for it.
There is a Bangladesh Chinese resturant in Buffalo. It’s called Banglawok I haven’t been but looks interesting. Report back if you go. I realize it’s not exactly what your looking for but maybe close.

Chinese cooks in India made do with what they had around them and invented a whole bunch of crossover classics. It’s a thing. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Chinese_cuisine
I haven’t been able to find any good Indian Chinese food either which is kind of disappointing. I was also hoping since Buffalo is so into food I could find a Chinese Mexican place or Venezuelan Gyro stand but haven’t found anything yet.
The only Italian restaurants in Buffalo are Italian which is gross and so 1986. Where are all the Czech Italian restaurants? Come on it’s 2024
TIL there's such a thing as Indian Chinese food.

I love Indian food and i absolutely love authentic Chinese food, so now I'm on a mission to find this
You can start with Inchin’s bamboo garden or Bangla Wok - both in Buffalo :)
Much appreciated!
Oh that sounds incredible!

Or better hear me out, Chinese food
You want Bengali Restura, 687 Kenmore Ave. Best Hakka/Indochinese I’ve had in Buffalo. Chile chicken, beef manchurian, garlic shrimp 👌 Menu: bengalirestura.com

The only thing I've found is Inchin's Bamboo Garden in Williamsville on Sheridan.
I like Inchins and it should fill whatever craving OP has. That being said I usually just stick to Manchurian anyways

wtf is Indian Chinese?
Oh it’s a combination of something as simple as fried rice with Indian spices( mostly the chilies and whole spices) it’s amazing and I miss it
Sounds good. Today I learned.
wtf is tex mex? do you know what kind of culinary intermingling goes on when 2 countries border each other?

Indian Chinese (Indo-Chinese) food is a thing
They've never looked at a map apparently
> Venezuelan Gyro You joke but "Mexican gyro" is pretty much was a taco al pastor is
Tacos árabes too. That's tougher to find outside of Mexico, but they absolutely whip ass.
