If it’s northern Indian cuisine you crave, more like the curry houses in the UK, the Maharajah group of restaurants (Boat Quay, Holland Village and Cuppage Terrace) comes highly recommended—and the delivery service is excellent. ‘You curry, we hurry’ is their motto—quick, efficient and delicious.

Little India is obviously the place for authentic Indian fare, but the dominance of immigrants from southern India means the food is more geared toward vegetarian daals, rice and breads than the tandoor meat dishes of northern India—and so it is here. Eat straight from a banana leaf, and don’t expect to get too much information about the ingredients—suffice it to say it’s clean, tasty and very cheap.

Having eluded the clutches of menuwielding maniacs outside the restaurants along Boat Quay, you’ll reach this little gem. Take the private lift to the fifth floor where you can sit al fresco admiring the view and enjoying the breeze. Food is fresh and authentic, and even the ice cream is prepared from scratch. So savour the setting and the home-cooked northern Indian fare at one of Boat Quay’s best-kept secrets.
