Calcutta in Berlin
|
Summary:
Longing for home food, vegetarian compulsions, and a desire to simply do something unusual, are top reasons for people from the sub-continent of India to want an ethnic feast in Berlin. However, you will not be either disappointed or left hungry, should you stumble on the doors of the Calcutta restaurant on the quaint Bleibtreustrasse in Berlin, purely by chance, and regardless of your background. |
Details or Sample:
The menu does not match the name of the restaurant. Every part of India has cuisine quite of its own. Eastern India, of which Calcutta (now renamed as Kolkata) is the only metropolis, is known for seafood, mustard oil as a cooking medium, plenty of rice, and desserts made from milk of cows. The menu of the restaurant in Berlin is more representative of the North West Frontier of the Indian sub-continent. This is the part of the globe which joins India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Nevertheless, it is not productive to take a puritan view of matters, because the food at Berlin’s first ever Indian cuisine outlet is gastronomically superb.
Hospitality distinguishes the Orient. An enchanting bonus of dining at the Calcutta in Berlin is the warmth of the service. You feel like a treasured guest in the exotic ambience, rather than just another paying customer. People from India, weary of the relatively detached efficiency of the European Union, will delight most especially in the homely atmosphere here.
The menu is almost entirely based on meat. However, vegetarians will revel in the traditional presentation of egg-plant with Indian bread roasted in a clay oven. Even those who love their meat will be pleasantly surprised to realize that vegetables can taste so good!
