What to Order and How Much to Budget
First-timers can begin with Okra Fries or samosas, then share Chicken Ruby and House Black Daal with rice or naan. Vegetarians have plenty of choices, including Mattar Paneer, Bhel, Makhmali Paneer and jackfruit biryani. The Edinburgh-only Salli Boti is worth considering if you want something different from the familiar curries.
For an example of spending, Chicken Ruby (£18.90) + Plain Naan (£4.90) + House Chai (£4.90) totals £28.70 before optional service. A more substantial combination of Chicken Ruby, House Black Daal, Steamed Basmati Rice and two House Chais totals £45.40 before optional service. These are arithmetic examples, not official bundles.
