Located in the swish, affluent town of Cobham in leafy Surrey, this restaurant offers North Indian cuisine. Head Chefs Sunil Sinha and Pradeep Asawa gained recognition by catering for the discerning tastes of Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana during their State visit to India. They create authentic dishes using fresh ingredients, herbs and spices, while many of their specialities are cooked in a charcoal fired tandoor oven.

Massala has taken authentic, ancient recipes and adapted them using the best ingredients, herbs and spices to create the finest Indian cuisine. Everything is cooked in a special charcoal fired clay Tandoor oven giving dishes a unique taste and flavour, whilst allowing the meats to remain succulent and tender. Massala is sophisticated and attractive, and provides guests with al fresco dining during clement weather in the extensive gardens.

Start with aloo tikki, potato patties filled with a combination of spiced dates, ginger and cashews, and then topped with tamarind and mint sauce, or gilafiseek lamb, cooked in a tandoori style, deftly wrapped in fresh aromatic vegetables flavoured with hot spices. For the main course consider dum ki biryani, chicken with aromatic spices, presented with basmati rice and served with raita, or the classic curries along with a variety of Indian breads.

Massala consciously uses fresh produce wherever possible and does not use any artificial colourings, flavourings or GM foods. All food is cooked specially to order, and the dishes will taste like nothing you have tasted before.
