One of the standout dishes is the Prawns Agri Tawa Fry, a delectable preparation that perfectly captures the essence of coastal Agri flavors. The prawns, seasoned with traditional spices and cooked to perfection, were described as “superb.”
Another noteworthy mention is the Chicken Sathey, a Tandoor delight served with a rich, creamy peanut sauce. “The perfect balance of flavors and texture made this dish extraordinary,” Randeep remarked.
For those looking to indulge, the Non-Veg Platter is an absolute feast. With generous portions that can easily satisfy a group of five, it offers a variety of grilled and tandoor-cooked meats that are sure to delight carnivores.
The Chicken Sholey Kebab is another showstopper, both for its taste and presentation. The mesmerising plating, combined with its smoky, flavorful essence, makes it an irresistible choice for diners.
