Tipped off by one of my favorite posters on Hungry Onion, we tried it last week and were delighted.

The decor is tasteful and modern, and service was very good, but the food really stole the show. Portions are generous (we took home half of the main courses for a lunch the next day).

We began with tiger prawns in a spicy sauce, a good size portion for sharing. For mains we had goat biryani and duck chettinad, both of which were superb, and cauliflower fritters as an accompaniment. I’ve always found biryanis to be somewhat one-dimensional, but this one was complex and full of flavor.

A bottle of Riesling went well with these spicy dishes.
