An intimate New Yorky setting, distinctively flavorful Indian food, each dish redolent with regional spices, instead of the one-curry-fits-all approach taken by many Indian restaurants. And their pepper lamb goes surprisingly well with a Central Coast Syrah. Our pick for Pasadena's top Indian restaurant. www.akbarcuisineofindia.com

Delicious macaroons, (pistachio, blackberry, caramel sea salt and chocolate are stand-outs) plus maybe the best egg salad sandwich you've every had. (We're guessing that not even the Cal Tech profs and students who frequent the place can diagram the science behind Europane's egg salad sandwich recipe). They have two restaurants in Pasadena: their second location is 950 E. Colorado, a nine minute walk from Lake Station.

Spanish food, sangria and live flamenco. The seating is often communal and they serve family style, so come prepared to meet your neighbors and fellow flamenco aficionados. We usually go for the tapas: papas bravas and boquerones are two of our favoritas. One of the most social and boisterous restaurants in Pasadena. www.lalunanegrarestaurant.com
