ICE CUBES: M. Night Shyamalan has a sixth sense about Tashan
M. Night Shyamalan is still slaving away on After Earth, his upcoming apocalyptic-world flick with the Smith men, Fresh Prince Will and young Jaden (the latter was all over Made in America’s VIP area with Jay and Bey). But even a diabolical auteur gets hungry. That’s why he took a break on Saturday night to hit up the barely-one-year-old Tashan with his wife, Bhavna.
Since Tashan opened in the fall of 2011, other filming-in-Philly folk have stopped into the adventurous eatery. A heaping helping of director David O. Russell’s Silver Linings Playbook lot (save stars Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence and Robert De Niro) hit up Tashan last November. Just weeks ago, as written up in an Ice Cube thespians Harrison Ford and Gary Oldman ate together at Tashan while on break from filming Paranoia with Liam Hemsworth.
Just this week though, it’s Tashan’s Munish Narula who has been in the foodie spotlight for turning his West Girard Avenue Indian eatery Tiffin on its ear with a bold new Indo-Chinese menu. For anyone who thinks Chinese cuisine doesn’t make sense at an Indian restaurant, guess again. Chinese food in all its kung-pao glory holds a similar place in Indian culture as it does in America (comfort food, really) and uses many of the same hot-and-zesty spices.
