Dig into three courses of delicious Keralan food for £35
If you haven’t visited Tharavadu before, you’re in for a real treat. The restaurant is a firm favourite with many a Leeds local, along with the Indian cricket team and restaurant critic Jay Rayner! Step inside and you’ll find a charming environment, adorned with colourful wall art and hospitality that’s second to none.
But let’s talk food. This special anniversary menu gives you the chance to try out a selection of the staff’s favourite dishes. With a regular option and a vegetarian option which can be made vegan, there’s something for everyone. Got a specific dietary requirement? Just let the restaurant know ahead of time and they’ll be happy to accommodate.
It all kicks off with a platter of three starters. There’s Uzhunnu Vada, a crunchy South Indian snack made with lentils, spices and herbs, Njerippan Kohzi, hot chicken in gravy and Meen Chuttathu, a wonderful fish-based starter. If you go veggie, you’ll enjoy chilli paneer and the pineapple-laden Kannara Chat.
For mains, it’s Tharavadu’s famous thali, so come hungry. You’ll get a selection of their best curries, along with rice, pickles and a delicious paratha. It’s a mammoth feast in itself. But save room for dessert – your choice of kulfi, an Indian-style ice cream, and Semiya Payasam, a tasty pudding made with vermicelli. By now you’ll be stuffed, satisfied and very, very happy!
Pair your food with your favourite drinks
You’ll get a soft drink to go with the meal, but you can elevate your dining experience further by adding on your choice of drink pairing. Pick your favourite tipple – beer, wine, or gin, and you’ll get to enjoy a trio of drinks hand-picked to match each course. With a focus on local produce, it’s a great way to try out something new.
Beer-lover? Enjoy a trio of Yorkshire’s finest for an extra £3, enjoying a half-pint with each course. Kick things off with Somarasam – a collaborative beer made by Kirkstall Brewery with the help of Tharavadu’s chefs, before supping a Virtuous and finishing with Leeds Brewery’s Monsoon IPA.
If you prefer wine, it’s an extra £7, which gets you a 125ml glass with each course. A dry white, Pinot Grigio Delle Dolomiti, starts things off before you move onto a versatile Pinot Grigio Rose to go with your thali. The rich and juicy Punto de Vacas Malbec rounds things off, perfectly complementing your pudding.
If you’re into your gin, you can’t go wrong with the final option – three 25ml gin and mixers for an extra £10. You’ll try gins from a trio of Yorkshire’s best distilleries, each served with your mixer of choice. Start with Masons’ original, move onto Slingsby’s rhubarb and finish with Mason’s pink grapefruit and cucumber. It’s a whirlwind tour of the region, and it certainly works!
