Al Makka

For spicy curries try this cheap and cheerful alcohol-free spot on a Fordsburg corner. It's also likely to stay open later than most. The menu is a mix of Pakistani, Indian and Chinese dishes with some Western-style fast food thrown in for the Fordsburg locals. Stick to the Indian and Pakistani dishes and you won't be disappointed. For dessert head in any direction out the door to one of the area's sweetmeat bakeries.
