We had the MAHARAJA PLATTER that comes with perfectly seasoned sheekh kebabs, chicken malai tikkas, fish pakoras, chicken tikkas. All served with mint and tamarind chutney. This was our favourite on the menu with so much flavour and variety! You can get a full or half platter depending on how hungry you are.

We also go the vegetarian MAHARANI THALI that comes with Haryali kebab, Dal Makhani, Shahi Paneer, Jeera aloo,Paneer Kofta, Peas pulao, Butter naan, mango lassi, raita, salad and Rasmalai. For those of you who don't know what a Thali is, Thali refers to the metal plate that a thali meal may be served on. Thali is a popular style of eating in India. The idea behind a Thali is to offer all the 6 different flavors of sweet, salt, bitter, sour, astringent and spicy on one single plate.

We stumbled upon this restaurant on one of our Sunday walks in downtown Calgary and its become one of our favorite places to go now.

From the fresh ingredients in all of their curries to the sizzle of the Mahraja Platter we are hooked!

We also fell in love with the presentation. The Pani puri below was presented on little shot glasses of flavours water and so pretty to capture.

PANI PURI is wheat and semolina wafers with various stuffings (chickpea, onions, cilantro, potato) and served with mint, mango,and tamarind flavoured water
