Christmas is still some 23 days or so away. Hit the local indian restaurants, and become an expert on it in the time you have between now and then. There is a ton of good indian food, but it's all a bit different, so get out and do some sampling.
I'd suggest starting with the lunch buffets, see if there's anything there you like, then ask the server about it, they will be more then happy to recommend other dishes close to it you will like more and more.
