Now, let's talk about the food – it was absolutely divine! The aroma of freshly baked tandoori bread wafted through the air, making our mouths water in anticipation. The buttery naans and flaky parathas perfectly complemented the flavorful curries and gravies.

The highlight of our meal was the signature chicken curry, bursting with aromatic spices and tender chunks of chicken. The vegetarian options were equally delightful, with the dal makhani and paneer dishes being standouts.

They also have a special dish everyday, dish of the day so to say which is priced lower than the menu price and is avaible all day long. They also have a smoke area ready for all the ones who need to take a puff while being mesmerised by the natural beauty of the mountains.

The menu had a great variety, and the staff was attentive to dietary preferences. I highly recommend trying their [insert signature dish if known, e.g., "butter chicken" or "paneer tikka"].
