🇮🇳 Darjeeling Express & New Hall wine Estate
Darjeeling Express New Hall Wine Estate Asma Khan Danielle Nowakowska Haydy Hosts…🍷
🌶️We had the pleasure of visiting the New location of Darjeeling Express and no doubt in my mind some of the best Indian food ever!
🍚We went for their feasting menu £75pp
2 mains per person, rice and served Tamarind dal, aloo gobi mattar, cucumber and cumin raita, Bengali tomato chutney, pickled onions, green chilli and coriander chutney, courgette paratha and plain paratha followed by dessert
🇮🇳 Our Lazeez Feast celebrates the extraordinary legacy of Asma’s mother, Faizana Khan. Founder of the acclaimed Lazeez Catering in Kolkata, Faizana became renowned for the exceptional meals she served at the city’s most distinguished clubs, including the Royal
Calcutta Turf Club. Inspired by her celebrated hospitality, this feast honours the flavours and traditions that made her table unforgettable.
🍷 We decided to bring new hall wine with us at a corkage charge of £30 per bottle. Both wines were excellent with the spice dishes
