Fabulous curries and amazing rooftop view

I had an incredible curry here after explaining what I couldn’t eat as a vegan. The food seemed slightly westernised which suited me after a week of slightly too spicy food. The lemon soda was also really refreshing after a long dusty day walking the streets and market.

The second time I ate here we sat on the roof where there is a fabulous view of the fort at sunset.

Pros: Tasty vegan curry options, Less spicy food options, Great ambience

Wonderful view!

Beautiful „pure veg“ restaurant in the old town of Jodhpur. From the rooftop terrace you have a terrific view of Mehrangarh Fort. The restaurant is in an old building with an awesome ambience. The courtyard is an oasis in dusty Jodhpur.

The food we had (Indian curries with rice) was good and I had the impression that they have good hygiene standards. The restaurant is a place that caters for tourists, so it isn’t too spicy (but Indians may not like it for exactly that reason). They don’t sell any alcohol.

If you’re a vegan, make sure to tell them exactly what you don’t eat, and repeat that with every order. This is important whereever you decide to eat in northern India. India may be a very good place to eat for vegetarians, for vegans it is rather difficult. Many restaurants are “pure veg” – this means it is vegetarian and they don’t use any eggs, but in northern India they usually use dairy aplenty. The concept of veganism is almost unknown, and most Hindus don’t understand it, because they would never kill a cow and cows are holy to them partly because in their opinion cows nourish humans with their milk… Many dishes that you wouldn’t suspect to contain dairy are made non-vegan by sprinkling cheese on top of it, mixing paneer-cheese in it, especially bread may often contain ghee or curd. I used the V-cards in Hindi (http://www.maxlearning.net/HEALth/V-Cards.pdf) in order to avoid that.

Pros: wonderful view from the roof top, great ambience, good food
