Dot Com Tandoori At Tandoori Kona
written by John Chow
Normally, Saturday is Dot Com Pho day. However, we like to mix it up once in awhile (if only to have something else to write about) so for today’s edition of the Dot Com get together, we headed off to Tandoori Kona at 11700 Cambie Road in Richmond for our first ever Dot Com Tandoori.
With 16 people attending, this was our biggest Dot Com get together to date. Like the last Dot Com Dim Sum, Dot Com Tandoori was sponsored by our friends at BlueFur web hosting. If you need web hosting, give BlueFur a shout. Use coupon code JohnChowRock for 15% of any services.
Attending this week’s East Indian adventure was (from right to left) yours truly, Matthew and his dad Rainer, Jen from Jentekk Web Solutions, Gary Jone and his wife Lisa from Blue Fur, Ed Lau, Stephen Fung, Michael Kwan, Tejpal from 1234Pens.com, Erin Berringer from Newport Business Media, Greg Morgan and his friend Danny. Cut off from the picture was my mom, Sally and Sarah.
The food at Tandoori Kona was very good. They had some of the best tasting Nan I’ve ever sampled and their butter chicken was tender and creamy. The same goes for the Mango Lassi. The restaurant is very small but the owner did a great job accommodating our large group. If our Dot Com lunch group continues to grow, we’ll be booking out entire restaurants soon!
The Food of Tandoori Kona
How Big Is Your Package?
Our sponsor for Dot Com Tandoori, BlueFur, unveiled their new T-shirt which ask, “How big is your package?” Can you tell who has the biggest package?
While we don’t know who has the biggest package, we all concluded that Micheal Kwan had the smallest. Whatever size package you’re looking for, BlueFur can take care of you. That is, if you’re looking for a web hosting package.

I wonder if they offer shirts like these through valleyshwag.
Isn’t CafePress notorious for lousy merchandise quality?
I don’t think so… at least not anymore. I’ve ordered a few shirts from them and not had any complaints.

Nice T. I should get one myself.
DARN I was in Richmond this afternoon on some business.. I would have gone if I had known of it!
Looks all good - btw do you live in Canada or Singapore John, from what I’ve gathered you spend time in both places?
Currently in Canada.
I don’t know why the pics of the food remind me so much of Singapore… maybe the awesome Indian food I had there.
Nice food
Damn John! More food! You really are living the life aren’t you.

There’s a nice restaurant near Metrotown.
Fish On Rice, kind of hard to find entrance, but the food is amazingly good.
All you can eat for $12, and I cant stress it enough, the food is good.
Give it a try.
Awesome get together John, you guys look like you had a great time!

Wow, that food looks amazing! There was one Nepalese place in Seoul that had some of the best butter chicken I’ve ever had. I will have to give this place a try! Gdog is currently in Ricemond!!
I haven’t had a decent Indian meal in ages! When I lived in Britain it was a regular weekly event but over here in Australia the Indian’s a bit different.
That looks absolutely yummy though! I’m getting hungry just looking at the pictures!
Indian food is the best, I’m so glad that I have an Indian wife, its a real treat
Hehehe, foods seem very delicious, Btw John You have to try Turkish foods
, they are great !!!!
That food does look good. Pity I don’t know of any of these places around here.
I know, same here… it seems Canada is the place to be for good food! *=)
So what is with all of the food articles?
I thought this was a blog about making money.
You thought wrong.
I’m confused by the food articles.
He does these on a fairly regular basis.
Where’s the confusion? The post is called Dot Com Tandoori.
It’s all in the name.
Yeah there’s even a category for it, check out fine dining.
Totally loved the photos, especially the last one! Had a good laugh with “We definitely know who has the smallest package!”

Did you like the food?
Some corrections:
>Its not nan its naan
>The food in the pix is actually north indian. (really tasty ofcourse)
And the mango lassi is actually called
Aamrus (aam=mango)
Orange juice in a Tiger beer glass!
What a waste!
That’s not orange juice, its a mango lassi (kind of like an Asian smoothie).
