One of the few Indian restaurants that exists in Sao Paulo and doesn't take for granted its rare status. Bollywood films and music videos run in an exhausting nonstop marathon on a hanging flat-screen while diners masticate on tandoor chicken, chewy-licous naan and other northern Indian dishes in Mughal-empire inspiration, hardly complaining about the heat in every mouthful while prim waiters are on standby to bring liquid relief. Still, you know which ones are the tourists (hint: they're not sweating). A R$20 buffet lunch keeps hunger at bay for the rest of the day.
