Poppycocks' Coconut Curry

Tastemaker

Picture this: You’ve snagged the coveted window table at Poppycocks in downtown Traverse City. You think things can’t possibly get better, but then the Coconut Curry ($24) arrives. To your right, a stack of grilled naan. Everywhere else, a savory combination of coconut red curry, basmati rice, chickpeas, cauliflower, carrots, and zucchini. And let’s not forget the toppings: the dish is finished with fresh cilantro and a zingy citrus crema. There’s just enough heat in the dish to warm you from the inside out as these October days grow cool, and you’ll finish feeling full and cozy. (Though our pro tip is to save about a third of the dish for lunch tomorrow and use the extra belly room to shop Poppycocks’ famous dessert case.) Here’s hoping you, too, get the window table at 128 E Front St. poppycockstc.com/dinner-menu

*Note: Since our visit, it looks like Poppycocks has slightly updated the curry dish for fall, but it still sounds delish!
