Tandoor is an oven made Indian clay, a simple artifact which does many things, like bake bread or roast lamb and chicken. All preparations cooked in the Tandoor are marinated in yogurt together with a special blend and herbs and spices to suit each variety of preparation. The Tandoor is kept at a high temperature with charcoal which heats the walls and the heat which is radiated together with smoldering charcoal also lends the food a special flavor. Indian cuisine is a combination of subtle tastes. Flavors are varied as the climate of India, and exotic as are the people of India. Fragrant spices, pungent and warm spices from four corners of the country are delicately blended in meticulous proportions to create the dishes we present to you. Each dish will have its own distinctive flavor and aroma which cannot come from any curry powder, but from spices which have to be separately prepared each day fresh from each individual dish. The blending and preparation of spices is a centuries-old craft and indispensable to Indian cuisine. Our traditional dishes are rooted in the soil of Bengal and Northern India and they are prepared in our restaurant as in our own homes.
