Indian spice
Published: 01 Apr 10
Since the five-star Taj Cape Town hotel transformed two former heritage buildings, the CBD has emitted an aromatic haze.
Spicy notes emanate from Bombay Brasserie, which boasts blue chandeliers, marble, gilt mirrors and peacock-motif chairbacks. Chef Harpreet Longani from northern India offers an extensive brasserie dinner menu, having sourced recipes during her travels throughout this vast country.
High standards are set with delicate lamb kebabs, subtle coconut milk-infused fish curry from coastal Kerala, and tender chicken tikka with bite. The extensive dal selection ensures vegetarians don't go hungry.
