Start Strong with Starters
Begin your meal with the dish that made Tunday legendary: the Galawati Kebab. Soft, melt-in-the-mouth, and seasoned with 160 hand-ground spices, it sets the tone for what follows.
For variety, add:
- Chicken Seekh Kebab for a smoky contrast
- Bun Galawati or Bun Shami for a street-style twist
These starters pair perfectly with mint chutney and a splash of lime.
ChooseYour Gravied Centerpiece
Every grand Awadhi meal features a rich, slow-cooked main:
- Nihari: Deep, spicy, and slow-cooked overnight with marrow-rich mutton
- Chicken Qorma: Creamy, aromatic, and subtly sweet
These gravies are made fresh with hand-ground masalas and deserve center-stage attention.
Add the Dum: Biryani to Remember
Next, bring in a Dum-cooked biryani to balance the meal:
- Chicken Biryani: Light, fragrant, and layered
- Mutton Biryani: Bold, tender, and luxurious
- Chicken Tikka Biryani: For those who want that extra smoky punch
Pair with boondi raita or cucumber yoghurt to mellow the spice.
Bread Is Not a Side, It’s a Statement
Bread is essential in Awadhi cuisine. Choose from:
- Sheermal – Slightly sweet, best with Nihari or Qorma
- Roomali Roti – Paper-thin and perfect for wraps
- Butter Naan or Lachha Paratha – Ideal with richer gravies
Build your own bread basket or ask for our Assorted Bread Platter.
Balance It All with Sides & Drinks
No meal is complete without the little extras that elevate the experience:
- Mint chutney & pickled onions to refresh the palate
- Sweet Lassi or Cold Coffee for a cooling touch
- Ask for the Dessert of the Day to end on a sweet note
