Gift Tips

  • Order the Gunpowder Dosa to share—crispy, spicy, and served with chutneys and sambar that elevate the dish.
  • If you enjoy seafood, try the Valiya Chemmeen Moilee (lobster curry); pair the rich sauce with coconut rice or parotta.
  • For a bold starter, go for the Tiger Prawns; they’re generously sized with satisfying heat and depth of flavor.
  • Preorder the Dungeness Crab if available—it’s a specialty that often sells out and can be messy but memorable.
  • Explore the cocktail list: the Milk Punch and Thee Mule are standouts with layered spice notes; ask staff for pairing suggestions.
