Jai Somnath Taste of India is an Indian restaurant at 217–219 Melton Road in Leicester. The dining room brings together the colour and sociable feel of Indian street food with a broad selection of familiar regional dishes, making it suitable for a quick snack, a relaxed meal or sharing several plates.
Chaats and small bites are an important part of the menu, with pani puri, bhel, samosas, bhajia and Mumbai style sandwiches among the choices. Dabeli and vada pav add the flavours of western Indian street stalls, while pav bhaji combines soft bread rolls with a warmly spiced vegetable mash.
Dosas provide a crisp, savoury centrepiece and can be ordered in several forms, including masala filled versions. Indo-Chinese combinations, Manchurian dishes, paneer preparations, rice and noodles extend the menu beyond snacks, with choices designed for diners who want a more substantial plate.
Regional comfort food such as Rajasthani dal bati and khichdi gives the selection further depth. Much of the offering is vegetarian, but dairy, gluten, nuts and other allergens may appear, so guests with an allergy or specific dietary requirement should confirm ingredients and kitchen procedures with the restaurant before ordering.
