Another option for good Indian food in the Horgen region, if you don't mind take-away, and like low(er) prices is here: https://www.facebook.com/spiceboxthalwil/
Chalet India in Horgen has improved a lot but I've also had inconsistent experience there. For example, Take-away seems to be always excellent but the buffet isn't very good.
These Indian restaurants never do a Thali which is is great to savour alot of tastes. Stupid . And the only reason is that they would make too little profit on such a thing. They want people to order separate dishes at 20CHF plus each.
Also, they never do a proper bakri chod. How they can call themselfs Indian restaurants without that, I do not know!
What the hell is bakri chod??
Don't you have a mirror?
It's in urban-dictionary.
If that's what DB meant...
try a Thali at Tamarind Hill ( https://www.tamarindhill.ch/ ) in Oerlikon and thank me later. Food served at TH is fingerlicking good. I also recommend their mixed tandoori platter.
That does make me laugh - when you show people that you can order one dish and share it between two with a side of rice or naan etc. it's like a life changing moment for many...!
Yes. The Swiss don't like to share so such a major event does not happen too often. Glad this has been a turning point in your life. Hopefully for the best
Never heard of fondue?
Those prices are eye-watering.
There are exceptions
Yes you dont need to eat that hot curry. Just look at the prices and your eyes start to water.
None of them are that good. Specially for a vegetarian / jain meal
Right. I find the Lebanese restaurants in Zurich to be tops!
Seriously? What cuisines have you tried from UP, HP, Haryana - all 'north Indian' states?
Pakistani food = Punjabi food (at best)
here is an example of a 'typical' North Indian dish. I doubt if any non-Indian EFers have even heard of this..
I've never tried the Chalet India lunch buffet (for some reason, lunchtime curries don't compute with me) but I must have eaten from the standard menu 50+ times over the years without disappointment or later complications. A favourite restaurant is not just the food, however. The staff are friendly and helpful, the view lovely, and I'm often there when friends or family are visiting so perhaps I have happy associations.
I have heard of this and in India eaten this. And I am non Indian.
I have heard of this and in India eaten this many times. And I am non Indian.
On a similar note I have enjoyed the food at Namaste Oerlikon (which unsurprisingly is in Oerlikon) and I suspect the "Mother restaurant" Namaste India in Kreis 4 should also be OK.
The menu offers no huge surprises but the food itself came in reasonable portions and was tasty. I did try the lunch buffet and wouldn't recommend, but for dinner it was good.
