Taste of Nawab is an established Indian restaurant at 97 Colney Hatch Lane in Muswell Hill. The welcoming neighbourhood dining room has served the area for three decades, combining attentive hospitality with an extensive menu that moves from street food inspired starters to clay oven cooking, regional curries and rice dishes.
The opening selection includes chicken tikka, garlic tiger prawns, lamb chops, chaat, samosas, onion bhaji and pakora. Seekh and shami kebabs offer further savoury choices, while the tandoor produces chicken or lamb tikka, shashlik, paneer, salmon, king prawns and a mixed grill for diners who want to sample several grilled specialities.
Curries range from familiar bhuna, rogan josh, dupiaza and korma to more distinctive korai, garlic rosun and chilli mirchi preparations. Pasanda provides a milder creamy option, while jalfrezi, torkari and hallim introduce different combinations of spice, vegetables, lentils and tender meat across the main course selection.
Chicken, lamb, prawn and vegetable biryani pair aromatic rice with a separate curry sauce. Black lentils and an assortment of vegetable dishes make useful accompaniments or satisfying choices in their own right, while steamed rice, pilau rice, naan and other freshly prepared breads complete a generous meal shaped around the dishes chosen for the table.
