Healthy dishes that use lots of spices are particularly popular among women.

The recommended for their lunch menu is the Lunch B set, priced at 850 yen (tax excluded) and includes curry (you can choose 2 out of 8 kinds), salad, soup, naan, mini rice and soft drinks (you can also choose lassi). There are also Indian beers (King Fisher) and Chilean wines available.
