Many people associate the word spicy with curry. Although the

portrayal is partly true since no other food is so inextricably linked

with aroma and flavor of exotic spices than the Indian cuisine. The

word curry is often used while describing Indian food. Therefore, it

becomes important for us to explain what the word curry means. Bombay Mahal uses the word curry for its sauces containing basic spices. To define "curry" however is another matter, this word which has no direct translation into any of India's fifteen languages is English in origin. The word usually describes limited combinations of spices used to flavor food in the Indian manner.

        Bombay Mahal's menu is a balanced mixture of entrees from various regions of India. The regional styles of cooking are mainly dictated by geographical factors such as proximity to the sea and the produce grown in the particular terrain.

Bombay Mahal welcomes you to a taste of the East!
