Thanks for your comments.  My partner, Jessica, and I are moving from
Toronto to Tucson in July.  She is visiting Tucson this week.  She ate
at Ghandi last evening and was dissatisfied.  We have enjoyed the
different ethnic neighborhoods in Toronto of which India Bazaar is our
favorite.  Our favorite restaurant is Udupi Palace.

It's a little disappointing to read that we'll have to drive to
Phoenix for good Indian food, but your advice is appreciated
nonetheless.  What about Asian markets in Tucson?  Are there any that
have the ingredients you need for cooking with a blindfold?  |-)
