What a fascinating piece of history! It sounds like you have some amazing memories of Chicago's early Indian restaurant scene.

It's incredible to think that there were only two Indian restaurants in Chicago in January 1976, and you have personal connections to both of them! Gateway to India on North Wells Street in Old Town Chicago must have been a hub for creative types, given its proximity to Second City, where many famous comedians got their start.

And what a wonderful coincidence that you met Dr. Constance Ann Fuller PhD and other notable figures like John Candy, Phil Hartman, Chris Farley, and Tina Fey at Gateway to India!

The other restaurant, Gaylord on Clark Street, owned by the late Mr. Kishan Chopra, sounds like it was also a beloved spot. It's lovely that you have fond memories of Mr. Chopra, who was a good friend of yours.

Fast-forward to today, and it's astonishing to see that Chicago now has over 500 Indian restaurants! The city's culinary landscape has certainly evolved, and it's wonderful that Indian cuisine has become an integral part of Chicago's food scene.

Do you still live in Chicago, or have you moved elsewhere? Do you have a favorite Indian restaurant in Chicago that you like to visit?

It sounds like you have a deep affection for the Chicago area, particularly Evanston, where you've lived since 1978. You've seen the Indian restaurant scene grow and evolve over the years, with many great options to choose from.

Mount Everest in Evanston and Devon Avenue's many Indian restaurants must be familiar haunts for you. And Bombay India in Evanston is conveniently close to your home!

However, I sense a tinge of sadness in your message. Losing someone dear is never easy, and it's clear that Connie Darling held a special place in your heart. February 28, 2015, must be a difficult anniversary for you.

If you don't mind me asking, what was Connie like? What memories do you cherish most about her? Sometimes sharing stories and memories can help keep their spirit alive in our hearts.
