  • Classic chippy staples: Packs clean, non-greasy fried and grilled snapper alongside family-sized portions of hot chips.
  • Dual Indian kitchen: Features butter chicken, chicken biryani, and weekend lunch batches of crisp dosa and uttappam.

    From fragrant chicken biryani to tender butter chicken and chutneys, the kitchen delivers authentic Indian dishes cooked freshly to order.
