A bustling, slightly chaotic Indo-Chinese spot serving spicy, tangy fusion plates inspired by Kolkata’s Tangra district.
Ordering Strategy
It is a small plates concept, so order 3-4 dishes per person to share. The Covent Garden location is better suited for groups than the cramped Soho original. The Lamb Chops are non-negotiable.
What to order
Crackling Spinach
Universally praised as a 'textural delight,' this dish features crispy spinach covered in sweet yoghurt, date, and plum sauce.
Lamb Chops
Rubbed in a masala spice mix, these chops are described as 'tender charcoaled-infused meat' that dissolves once popped into your mouth.
Kid Goat Momos
A signature 'Indo-Chinese' staple featuring spiced meat or vegetables in a 'sturdy shell,' served in puddles of broth with sweet chutney.
Sizzling Chocolate Brownie
A 'triumphant epic' of a dessert, this 'flaming, gooey-centred' brownie with a dollop of ice cream is a standout unexpected hit.
