BIG NEW THING?

Who among you has heard about/read about Indian/Chinese fusion food? I'm trying to learn more. We tried to have lunch at two Japanese restaurants today, thanks to my reading about various Japanese foods in some blogs I was reading. Neither Japanese restaurant was open. So, we tried an Indian/Chinese fusion place. Not as good as the other similar place we go to regularly, but it brought up the question: is this a popular fusion food these days? Where? There are only two places we know of in the Dallas area. Where else are they? Is this a BIG NEW THING on the gastronomic landcape?
