Promises food that’s as authentic as you’ll find anywhere in India: manager Ranjit Jacob says the recipes and methods used at Little India are ‘the same as in the home country.’
He says part of the secret is having a clay charcoal oven, or tandoor, which gives the food its traditional smoky taste. Expect all your favourites, mains costing from around $17, or enjoy the Maharajah’s banquet (‘the works’) for $26.50. Licensed/BYO. Open for lunch Mon-Fri 11.30-2pm, dinner daily from 5pm-10pm.
