The Raj lives on in Kent. The door to Tamasha, opens on a world of devoted hospitality, cuisine and d?cor. In the Cricket Bar you can admire the spoils of thirteen years of passionate acquisition of cricket memorabilia, including Sir Vivian Richards' own autographed bat. The main dining room is a traditional assemblage of ceiling fans, rattan chairs, comfy upholstery, white napery and photographs of the days of the Raj. Live entertainment adds to the ambience early in the week, and children have their own entertainment during Sunday lunch - making a relaxing meal for parents. Award-winning chefs use the freshest ingredients to create pan-Indian dishes like starter of chicken nilgiri tikka, main courses of Goan jhinga balchao with fried prawns, classic bhuna gosht, or highly recommended butter chicken. Good choice of wines and beers complements the menu. Parking available.
