d' Tandoor

d' Tandoor is a North Indian restaurant in Precinct 10, Tanjung Tokong. This Malaysian restaurant chain has several outlets nationwide and more stores in other countries.

As opposed to South Indian cuisine which is more common in Malaysia, d' Tandoor specializes in Mughlai cuisine. Hailing from North India and Pakistan, Mughlai recipes are renowned for their distinctive aroma and flavor of spices.

There are several set meals for lunch and dinner. The pricing of lunch sets seems more affordable.

For example for RM13.90, the Gosht Set Lunch comes with basmati rice, naan bread, mutton masala (spice mix), vegetable makhanwala (buttery dish), dhall tarkha (split pea sauce), raita (yogurt dip) and a cordial drink. The mutton is very tender because it has been cooked for a long time.

For RM2.00 more, basmati rice can be substituted with biryani rice. I think it is not necessary to upgrade because the side items are quite flavorful on their own.

Also for an additional RM3.00, the cordial drink can be replaced with mango lassi.

d' Tandoor is a halal-certified restaurant. It is also worthwhile to mention that d' Tandoor does not use MSG in the kitchen.
