Featured Dish – Lamb Tikka Kebab
Also available with chicken, our tikka kebab is marinated with yoghurt, herbs and spices before being cooked in our tandoor (clay oven). Served with green peppers and onions, this is another great healthy alternative to a curry. Ideally served with a light fluffy nan bread is the perfect option but rice will do too!
