India Hotel is one of the best restaurant in the City of Ranchi, Jharkhand. It is located in Main Road, near Kashmir Vastralaya. Apart from restaurant, this hotel also provides the lodging services on reasonable rates.
This restaurant which function almost all day of the week provides great services to its customer. This business center has a good rating on google maps of 4.3. The ambiance is really good, however they need to maintain more cleanliness.
I reached the restaurant by 12.30 PM along with my two other friends, by that time few menu items were already finished (I will recommend to visit this place before 11.30 AM, if you wish to taste varieties of Fish cuisines)
We had ordered Mutton-Rice Thali, Chicken Curry, Aloo Bhaja and Fish. It has its own unique recipe for Mutton (Goat Meat) Curry, although the chefs are Bengali and Odiya but one will definitely get the local flavor also. In the modern time, they still use coal stoves to cook all the foods, which makes the food really tasty and mouthwatering.
If you are a hardcore non-vegetarian then you must visit this place. Mutton-rice plate is a really popular dish also my favorite dish. Apart from Mutton/Chicken/Fish dishes you can also try the crunchy Aloo Bhaja.
I do appreciate Indian food , and this looks absolutely quite authentic. Can you specify what is Aloo Bhaja and how is usually prepared? I have never heard about this fish before.
Thank you @AngieYC . I had ordered Mutton and chicken curry both. But I liked Mutton Curry most. It was really delicious and made in Bengali style.
It’s good to know that you like Madras chicken curry. Here in mumbai I also loved this Curry, specially in the typical madrasi restaurants or mare by madrasi chefs.
Thank you @Sorbe & @DeniGu for appreciating this recap post.
It’s great to know that you do appreciate Indian foods. However due to plethora of spices in Indian foods, foreigners hesitate a little to taste it. But believe me Indian foods are really awesome and rich in everything, rich in taste, rich in spices, rich in colour and also rich in calories too .
Aaloo bhaja is not any type of fish. It’s like french fry. Aaloo means potato and bhaja is like something deep fried in oil. It is deep fried in oil till the potato pieces become crunchy. You would love to taste it along with your main course.
If you will ask me the level of spiceness then I would say 5 out of 5. But it does not mean that, the curry was any kind of tart, harsh or acrid. All spices used like garlic, ginger, turmeric, cumin, green chilly, cinnamon, black pepper, cardamom etc were included in a fair amount to make the dishes tasty and mouthwatering… Whereas in fish curry they had majorly used mustard along with other spices.
I really want to try the authentic Madras chicken curry. I tried several Indian restaurants in Europe and all have different taste, that’s why I am curious to know how the original one will taste like.
Wow, that’s a lot of spices, @NandKK ! But I’m sure they all balance wonderfully.
I think that the Indian dishes I’ve tried in Bulgaria have a milder taste, to fit the preferences of the locals. I’d love to one day try authentic Indian meals in India!
But I’m sure they all balance wonderfully.
