BEST REASON TO EAT YOUR OKRA AND CAULIFLOWER
Laziz, 2475 McMullen-Booth Road , Clearwater ; (727) 797-7541.
This crossroads of suburban retail now includes one of the posher settings for Indian cuisines, too long underrepresented here. Laziz fills a small, handsome restaurant with carefully roasted and blended spices. The spectrum runs from tart, vinegary vindaloo to the rich, sweet, creamy kormas. But the best meal may be whole baked eggplant. Try as many Indian breads as you can. (The lentil papadums are low-carb.)
