A new restaurant is added to the huge array of restaurants in Karama, and it is definitely something everyone should try. At least someone who loves some quality Indian food.
Grand Mahal, located on the Zabeel street, Karama, with really pretty interiors had food which tasted magnificent.
For drinks, we had some very attractive Blue Lagoon mocktail: which I mixture of their specially prepared blue lagoon syrup mixed with some fizzy 7up. Also tried their Mix Berry Frape: which was a mixture of their special Red Berry Fruit mix syrup along with milk, vanilla and minty goodness.
For Starters, we tried their soups, salads & starters. Yes, we had loads of food. For soup, we tried their corn soup (prepared with exquisite Indian taste of corn garnished with traditional herbs & spices) & tomato soup (Freshness of tomatoes mixed with coriander with butter poached vegetables & served with bread croutons). Both the soups tasted very fresh and exquisite. The Rocca Salad served with batons of cucumber, tomato & carrot with a squeeze of lemon & comes with Mayo dip. Very fresh indeed.
From their appetizer range, we tried one of the best Chaat platters called "Chaat Bazaar" which is a selection of street food chat from the heavenly streets of India. All the chats tasted delicious and the dish is a definite must order if you ever head there. You have an option of ordering the chats separately as well.
Also had Paneer Tikka Angara, a good dish for all the paneer lovers. Homemade cottage cheese marinated in yoghurt perfectly mixed with aromatic spices and baked in a clay oven. Really well made.
Had a very different item on their menu as well, called Subz Gilafi Seekh, the dish was made of finely chopped bell peppers enveloped together making an exceptionally well-cooked vegetarian skewer, fashioned out of some selected minced vegetable with pleasing flavours.
@grand_mahal_restaurant For our main course, we have some delectable Subzis. The dish called Shadras Subziyan: was an exotic mix of vegetable well simmered in brown onions and cashew nut based gravy. Also had Tawa Paneer Khatta Pyaz: with our favourite paneer tikka cooked in an onion tomato masala gravy with some cocktail onion. These stunning dishes are usually accompanied by your choice of bread & rice. We hade these with some garlic nans and tandoori rotis.
Also had some gorgeous Sabz Dum Biryani: Freshly selected seasonal vegetables simmered in tomato, onion & spices steamed to supremacy with basmati rice, saffron & topped with some delish brown onion & mint. it was truly perfect.
For Desserts, we tasted some lovely Shahi Tukda, made with a caramelized brioche, pista kulfi ice cream & strawberry compote. A real treat.
Also the Kulfi Falooda, which is always a favourite. A legend says that the Kulfi ice cream was first created for the Grand Mughal Kind- Akbar, to help him recover the heat of summer.
The dessert consisted of Kulfi ice cream flavoured with cardamom and enriched with pistachios topped with some vermicelli. Beautiful.
All in all, this is going be my go-to place when needed a divine Indian treat.
waiting for this place to open up soon because i had the best chaat platter here! it had yummy pani puri, palak patta chaat, samosas, aloo tikki, pakoras and chaat. the barbeque platter is equally impressive.
The place is good and serves AUTHENTIC NORTH INDIAN FOOD! no fusion .. whenever we visit any Indian restaurant on small scale they fail to serve proper north Indian food as per menu and usually have other states influence!!
We ordered chicken chicken handi which was full of flavours, papri chaat perfectly moist, naan perfectly cooked and rice really long grain. The portion size was perfect , staff was courteous and we were so happy with the food that we really got to meet chef AJAY RANA, the man behind its awesome curries! .. good work and keep it up.
