Darbar – Indian
The air at Darbar is thick with the intoxicating scent of toasted cumin and smoky, tandoor-charred meats, drawing guests into a warm space where traditional flavors take center stage. Crispy, golden-hued samosas and zesty Chicken 65 set the tone for a decadent feast of velvety Butter Chicken or piquant Goat Vindaloo, all meant to be savored with pillows of fresh, hearth-baked naan.
