Greetings, foodies! We know you’re constantly looking for new flavours to explore in the city. And, what more to satisfy the constant need for new flavours than the traditional Indian Thali meal. At Cholas Spice Kitchen, you’ll be offered over 45 dishes on a single platter! Intrigued? Read on to find out what’s in their signature Maharaja Thali!
Cholas Spice Kitchen Serves One Of The Biggest Traditional Thali You’ve Ever Seen
Many of us may not be too familiar with the traditional Indian cuisine Thali. It may remind you of banana leaf rice or even nasi ambeng, but Thali is so much more than the rest. Not only do you get an array of dishes but it all ranges from 6 different flavours of sweet, salt, bitter, sour, astringent and spicy on one single platter. At Cholas Spice Kitchen, you get the Maharaja Thali – ultimately bringing more even more dishes to enjoy in a single seating.
Highlights Of The Maharaja Thali At Cholas Spice Kitchen
With over 40 dishes in their Maharaja Thali, here’re a couple dishes that you simply cannot miss out on when you’re here. Standing out amongst the rest, the Pineapple Tikka gives your usual tangy tropical fruit a whole new level of flavour. This is the ultimate starter dish to kick off your Thali experience right here!
1. Butter Chicken: Moving along from their starters, you definitely have to give their rich and creamy butter chicken a try. Tender chicken pieces drenched in savoury gravy that simply pairs greatly with their selection of biryanis or keema naan (minced meat stuffed inside the naan).
2. Dal Makhani: Using authentic Indian recipes, this dish is not your ordinary dal. Ultra rich and creamy from its use of thick cream, a single bite into it with the pairing of chappati is incredibly delicious.
3. Nandu Rasam: A seafood soup that uses fresh crab pieces and cooking it in garlic, ginger and green chilies. This dish certainly packs a spicy punch but still leave you wanting for more.
4. Palak Paneer: Love cheese? You’ll like this vegetarian curry that consists of fresh Indian cottage cheese with puréed spinach. Being one of the most popular paneer dishes, hint of spice can be tasted along with the creaminess of the cheese.
5. King Fish Curry: A dish that probably has the likes of most people who is in love with curry, there’s nothing better than fresh fish curry. Spicy and aromatic at first smell, indulge in this with the pairings of biryanis, plain basmati rice or even cheese naan.
6. Semiya Payasam: End your meal with something sweet by devouring this traditional Indian delight that consists of full cream, vermicelli and ghee. All of which is then topped off with raisins and cashew nuts for more texture. The perfect dessert to tie in all the flavours your palate has explored.
Besides that, you got to have something to pair with the wide array of curries being served. Hence, the Maharaja Thali comes with not one, not two, but FOUR different rotis! Choices of Garlic Naan, Chappati, Laccha Pratha and clay oven Rotis. There’s also Papadums to go with your curry-filled rice or just have it by itself as appetisers.
Above all, the Maharaja Thali also comes with a side of smooth and rich Coconut Lassi. If you’re not a fan of coconuts, fret not, as you can also go for their signature Virgin Mojito. These are the perfect concoctions to refresh your palate and keep you cool on hot sunny days.
