Cool! I lived in Baltimore for quite a while, what Indian restaurant did you go to?

Also, this seems like a good thread to repost my favorite Naan recipe and its wicked easy, if you like Naan you should try this:

Goat-cheese Naan:
1 1/2 cups unbleached all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons plain yogurt
1 cup crumbled soft fresh goat cheese
3 tablespoons butter
3 1/2 cups sliced yellow onions

Sift first 3 ingredients into bowl. Mix in yogurt and 1/2 cup goat cheese. Knead on floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Form into ball. Return to bowl; cover with plastic. Let rest 2 hours (dough will not rise).
Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add onions; sauté until they just start to brown. Season with salt and pepper. Cool. Set aside. Turn dough out onto floured surface. Divide into 4 pieces. Form each into ball. Roll out each to a flat 8-inch round.
Brush heavy medium skillet or hot grill with olive oil; heat over medium-high heat. Add 1 dough round and cook until brown spots appear all over bottom, about 5 minutes. Turn bread over and cook until brown spots appear all over second side and bread is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to large baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough rounds.
Preheat broiler. Spread onion mixture atop breads. Sprinkle breads with remaining 1/2 cup goat cheese. Broil breads just until cheese begins to melt, watching closely to avoid burning, about 2 minutes.

Also I really recommend using a grill for the bread, but a hot skillet or will do fine.
