Fragrant biryanis and Mumbai street-food favourites feature too, including the veg dosa, an Indian rice pancake with mashed potatoes served with sambar and coconut chutney. There is plenty for vegetarians, with saag paneer, chana masala and vada pav among the well-regarded options, all rounded off with sweet touches like mango desserts and sorbets. The drinks list adds a further point of interest, with unusual cocktails made with Indian spices that pair nicely with the food, alongside soft drinks and a well-loved masala chai.
