The Funjabi Tadka (Southern Avenue, Rashbehari)

Funjabi Tadka Entrance

Tandoori Anda

If you want to have "fun" with some "punjabi food", just move into this amazing restaurant, "The Funjabi Tadka". The brand is a take-off from Chef Harpal’s show ‘Turban Tadka’ of the “Food Food” channel. This 3000 sq. ft. premium fine dining outlet is located in the upmarket area of Southern Avenue, an area where all can get a good glance of it. Inspite of several punjabi restaurant dotted all over Kolkata, The Funjabi Tadka is a little different in the aspect of, obviously the taste of the food, the decor and yes, the price as well. To start off with, it’s the decor which catches your eyes. The "desi" look of the interiors attracts your attention completely!

The sophisticated dhaba look muted with traditional elements like colorful wall graphities, slateboard menu cards, a kitschy handcart and the coir rope decor on the ceiling; render semi-casual air to the place. It is decorated with several wall paintings and fine pieces of art. The hall can accommodate around 70 people, which seems to be an average score, though. The restaurant is dimly lit with some background music to soothe your ears.

Funjabi Tadka Interiors

Coming to the main section, 'FOOD', it offers you a variety of North Indian dishes. To begin with is the famous "lassi", loved by all! It comes in a typical Dhaba-Style tea serving steel rack of four shot glasses – with flavours sweet and salted, mint-chilli, green apple, mango-chocolate. "The Mango & Chocolate Lassi" makes you say – 'Hmm! Mango and Chocolate, Kya jugalbandi hai!!' It serves mouthwatering starters, like the Makhmali Malai Murg Tikka, Fish Amritsar, Paneer Haryali Tikka and many more to make you salivate!!

The main course gives you the entire “fun” jabi mood! Among the never ending list of North Indian delights – the most delicious is the Kadai Butter Chicken, it’s a must try! The Beckti Afghani kebabs leave an aftertaste and the Amritsari chicken tikkas, though soft, juicy and well grilled, lack the smokiness of the sealed matka it is presented in. The Bharwan Karela & Dal Palak adds to the uniqueness of the menu since these are “ghar ka khana” found in every Punjabi house. Other salivating items like Mutton Stew Khichdi, Rasewala Meat, Dal Dhaba Tadka, Paneer Highway Butter Masala gets easily included to make a meal sumptuous and complete. To move along with these finger licking items, there are Rotis, Naan (butter / garlic) and the utmost delicious, 'TFT Special Matka Biriyani', this cannot be missed!!

Sitabhog Malai Kulfi

After sailing all the way through beverages, starters & main course – why not 'kuch meetha ho jaaye?'. The Funjabi Tadka serves Malpua Rabdi, Mirchaan Wala Halwa, Sitabhog Malai Kulfi and few more other sweetmeats! Well, the price for two persons is Rs. 1000 (inc. of taxes), which is a little on the higher side as compared to Punjabi Dhabas, but surely it’s a restaurant, worth spending for! So, just walk into this amazing place with family and friends. Happy Dining!!
