Tashan, the modern Indian restaurant at 777 S. Broad St., had a visit Thursday night by actors Harrison Ford and Gary Oldman, who are filming the thriller Paranoia hereabouts. (The two play adversaries again. See below from Air Force One.)

Chef Sylva Senat whipped them up a gigundo tasting menu: gol gappa, malai kofta lollipops, spinach salad, grilled octopus, shrimp, vegetables Sariya, bread basket, kobe beef kebab, aloo tikki, quail, and tandoori lobster with corn curry. Plus dessert.
