Chourangi is a Calcutta inspired Indian restaurant at 3 Old Quebec Street in Marylebone. Its menu explores the city’s three hundred years of culinary exchange, drawing on Bengali traditions and the European, Mughal and Chinese influences that have shaped food in Calcutta.
Small plates and dishes from the tandoor include lotus stem and sweet potato chaat, prawn cutlet, kasundi paneer tikka and delicately spiced chicken. Mustard, coconut, mango ginger, nigella and Calcutta’s characteristic spice combinations give each preparation a distinct regional identity.
Larger dishes move through lamb cooked with cardamom and cloves, chicken curry, tiger prawn malai curry and substantial vegetable preparations. Calcutta biryani combines fragrant basmati rice with saffron, rose, potatoes and egg, with chicken, lamb, jackfruit and vegetable variations offering several ways to experience the style.
Black dal, seasonal vegetables, rice, naan, paratha and chutneys complete a shared meal, while Bengali inspired sweets provide a gentle finish. Set menus offer a structured introduction to the cooking, and collection or delivery makes the restaurant’s distinctive Calcutta flavours available at home.
