Question of The Week: What is Tarka?

Do you often find yourself perusing 38th and Chestnut, contemplating the meaning of life, and damning the disappearance of the Chili's that once was? Are you perpetually seeking solace in what has now become of that dreaded block?

It's time to get down to the hard-hitting questions. What the hell is Tarka?

What we do know: It's an "Asian cuisine" restaurant. Could be Chinese. Could be Japanese. Could be Mongolian. Could be Indian. Could be a mix of all four.

...Or maybe it's a portal to the underworld? A drug front? A mere extension of Atlantis?

We would love to know. Give us your insight in the comments section below!
