Come join us on a journey through India’s cuisine with our whole new and contemporary menu that has been honed by years of experience in food and expertise of our chefs.
Indian food offers a rich diversity of flavors from across the length and breadth of this great subcontinent - classics from the palaces of royalty to the comfort food of the dhabas.
Ranging from a variety of meats and fish to a mindboggling assortment of fresh vegetables, pulses/lentils and grains cooked in different ways by India’s indigenous peoples – steamed, boiled, blanched and broiled, roasted, grilled, fried and lightly seasoned and tempered with some of the finest spices and herbs of the world.
Start with bite-sized portions of tasty and tangy samosas, tikkis, dahi bhallas and chaats.
Choose from an array of melt-in-your-mouth morsels of meats, fish and cottage cheese – tikkas and kababs from our tandoor, koftas from the spicy, simmering curries from our coasts.
Opt for different, delicately seasoned vegetables sabzis and tarkaris or tempered and slow cooked dals to go with fragrant pulaos and biryanis flavored with choice vegetables and meats, as well as freshly baked naans and flaky paranthas!
We have a range of condiments, hot pickles and sweet chutneys to relish along with your meal.
Top it all off with our sinful delicious Indian sweets – cool kulfis (the original Indian ice cream), shahi tukra (the royal bread pudding) or hot gulab jamuns.
Wash it all down with our flavored lassis, masala chais, aromatic teas and freshly brewed coffees. |

Today it is the lightest and most nutritious form of cooking in Indian restaurants where meats and vegetables are marinated and lightly grilled, as also fresh breads are baked with great skill and expertise. |

CURRIED SPECIALITIES |
| During the British rule in India, “curry” was rather a catchall word for anything Indian mottled with hot spices, with or without a sauce. And that is how it stayed to rest of the Western world as well. We would like to define it as dish consisting of meat, fish, chicken or vegetables, simmered in or covered with a sauce, gravy or liquid that is redolent with spices and herbs. And the variations of ingredients, spices and herbs are what make each curry different from the other. |
