a taste of india

masala means spice – the very heart and soul of indian cooking.

the best indian food is found in people's homes, on wayside stalls, or maharaja's palaces, and not in restaurants in india. namita panjabi, co-owner and director of cuisine - and her sister camellia panjabi, who are leading authorities on indian food, have travelled all over india to find it.

they have honed and combined the talents of many specialist chefs to give a unique combination of real indian food as eaten daily by hundreds of millions of indians in india.

the menus present an exciting combination of flavours and offerings. we have something for everyone- freshly prepared.

the quality of ingredients, the presentation and quality are not compromised by the price level.

enjoy, you are entering masala zone

all round goodness

tempoary

food is more than fuel or titillation it is foundation on which we build our bodys future. our fast paced lives make it extremely difficult to eat healthily.

however, we help counteract this through fresh ingredients and relatively little oil, and through the thalis which give a balanced combination of nutrition, flavours, textures and colours.

the thalis have included for centuries the aromatic and healthy ingredients long identified in india as having cleansing and repairing properties.

street food

thalis

street food is one of the cornerstones of the menu. the tangy savouries eaten on the streets has traditionally been the main form of eating out for the indian urban populace.

we utilise the freshest of foods from recipes that have travelled down the generations of indian street vendors.
