<First Visit in Early September 2024>
I was drawn to this restaurant after seeing it featured on a certain variety show, and last Sunday I decided to check it out. Unfortunately, it was their regular day off, so I returned for a weekday lunch to try again!
The service consisted of one male staff member from South Asia and one male cook who handled both the kitchen and customer service. Perhaps due to it being a group prayer day, many portions of biryani (spicy rice similar to paella) were packed into plastic containers and stacked in cardboard boxes.
I ordered the Bengal Fish Curry Set (JPY 1,500, tax included) and chose the mango lassi (which was also an option).
Almost immediately, my drink arrived—mango lassi with what seemed like mango syrup. It was sweet and chilled with ice, which was much appreciated given the near 35-degree temperature.
After about five minutes, my dish was presented on a white plate.
The meal included fried slices of rohu (a type of fish) served over basmati rice (a premium long-grain rice), accompanied by a sour achar (pickle) typically found in South Indian meals, green chili peppers, a salad of purple cabbage and carrots, and aloo barta (spiced mashed potatoes).
I poured the thin dal (bean soup) that resembled what I’d find in a Bangladeshi grocery store and eatery in Shin-Okubo over the rice, combining small bites of the side dishes for a more enjoyable experience.
The white fish rohu and aloo barta had a lighter seasoning compared to what I’ve had at other places. Nibbling on the green chilies gradually added spice, perfectly enhancing the flavors, and I carefully removed the bones from the rohu as I devoured the dish enthusiastically. I finished off the mango lassi, leaving me completely satisfied with the meal.
Next time I visit, I’d like to try the mutton biryani.
