Sat Sri Akal
Welcome to Little India. We trust
that you will enjoy a truly unique
and memorable dining experience
whilst indulging yourself in
the real taste of fine Indian
cuisine.
Flavours of India
India is a vast country with a
rich heritage as reflected in its
various people, cultures and cuisine.
We, at Little India, have chosen
to present some of the more characteristic,
yet legendary dishes from North
India, especially Punjab. These
internationally renowned dishes
trace their origin from the invading
Mughals. Our food with its Tandoori
Kebabs, kormas and other sumptuous
delicacies is complemented with
Naan breads and Basmati rice (Basmati
rice is the king of all rices grown
only in The Punjab). The common
word 'curry' is a British adaptation
of the Tamil word 'Kari' - meaning
in effect a seasoned sauce and
must never be applied to identify
Indian cuisine as a whole.
Spices of life
5000 years ago, the Himalayan sages
conceived the use of spices and
herbs as a natural means to balance
the metabolism of the body. This
knowledge became the corner stone
of the Ayurvedic 'Science of Medicine'.
It is the variety and combination
of these spices that nourishes
both body and soul - an experience
to cherish.
Tandoor - A Timeless tradition
Villages in North India have traditionally
used mud stoves (Chulhas) and clay
ovens to cook their food. One such
oven is the Tandoor which is shaped
like a barrel and fired by charcoal.
The food, prepared first in a special
marinade, is spiked on long metal
rods and then cooked in the Tandoor.
Little India's preparation makes
our food beautiful to behold and
addictive to the palate. Do come
and see us.
