An eye-catching and light appetiser. Chef Sovani shared that friends and familyy can break the papadum together after saying well wishes, which I thought added a beautiful meaning to the dish.

Smoked Paprika Cheese Kulcha ($11.50): featuring soft & chewy flatbread ๐ topped with cheese ๐ง, I liked the balance of sweet & savoury! โ
Goan Fish Curry ($20): look at those thick chunks of fresh seabass fillet! ๐ The coconut curry was really creamy & rich ๐, leaning towards the sweet side.
Khau Galli Kheema Pao ($25): make your own slider ๐ with their flavourful minced lamb ๐ sandwiched with their freshly in-house buns ๐! Like that there is no gamey taste!
