If you're a broke grad student like me and you can’t afford to eat out everyday, visit Patel Brothers (2610 W. Devon Ave.), the Indian grocery store, and stock up in bulk. Bollywood songs from the 1980s will hit you before you even enter the store. That, combined with the smell of spices will make you feel like you are back in India.
