Bangalore Tandoori Restaurant

Bangalore Tandoori Restaurant, based in the Edinburgh city centre, serves classic Halal Indian cuisine; it is ideally placed for before or after theatre meals with easy access by car or public transport from all parts of the city.

It takes its name from one of the most beautiful cities in southern India. Bangalore is a Garden City and deservedly was a very popular watering hole in the days of the Raj.

The Indian peninsula, from the "Roof of the World" to the Deccan plateau and the great plains of the Indus and the Ganges, is a land of many contrasts, not least in the variety of its cultures and associated ways of preparing food flavoured with an outstanding choice of herbs and spices.

The cuisine of the Bangalore Restaurant reflects this diversity of taste and culture, from the green herb lamb of Bombay to the karai gosht of the Punjab, the king prawn jaalfrazie of Bengal or the sabzi panir of Goa, to the murgh makhani of Kashmir. All their dishes are created from the finest fresh produce and freshly ground spices.

The Bangalore proves also that Indian food is not necessarily fiery and pungent, for instance, try a Kurmah. Created for the Moghuls, the use of fragrant and aromatic whole spices, and its garlic, ginger and creamy sauce make this a mild smooth dish for the connoisseur.

As with many Indian restaurants, vegetarians are made equally welcome, with a rewarding selection of dishes.
