Taste of Tandoor

It has to be tasted to be believed... Taste of Tandoor is bringing authentic Indian cooking methods to the people of Dunedin. Who knew a clay oven could bring so much happiness?

And it's not just the food that'll bring a smile to your face; this eatery's cheery magenta and orange walls is bound to brighten up your day no end. With heaps of natural light flooding into their informal bistro, this is a wonderfully relaxed spot for friends, family and loved ones to reconvene over the best soul food in town.

Time to fire up the tandoor! Settle into the evening with some samosa chaat, chili paneer or deep-fried potato bites in chickpea batter (which are just as moreish as they sound!) Alternatively, opt for a sharing dining style with the mammoth platter, stuffed with anything from kebabs to tandoori prawns and tandoori mushrooms.

Exquisite curries line the mains menu. With bhunas, pasandas, saagwalas, baltis and many more, the possibilities are endless. All you have to do is choose your preferred meat. Vegetarians can take their pick of classic aloo gobi, daals and paneer curries. Or take a different route with the Amritsari kulche chole, a soft bread stuffed with seasoned mashed potatoes - perfect for dipping in a spicy chickpea curry. Oh tandoor, how can we ever thank you?
