A ROYAL 30 YEARS!
03.01.12
By Sheryll Alexander
We’ve always loved Royal Khyber Fine Indian Cuisine, so we are excited about celebrating this South Coast Plaza Village’s 30th anniversary with a $30 prix fixe dinner (which includes a glass of wine!).
Proprietors Urmil and Arun Puri’s dinner special includes a choice of spicy tandoori kebabs for two, daal (lentil) soup, gourmet greens with tamarind-ginger-honey dressing or a vegetarian assortment of samosa, aloo tikki and onion bhajia. Entrée selections (served with basmati rice pilaf, vegetables and tandoori or garlic nan) feature the restaurant 's signature dish: Khyber’s Nectar (a fall-apart lamb shank braised for hours in spices) or salmon malabar, chicken tikka masala, paneer tikka masala or vegetarian thali.
For dessert, pick from kulfi with cannoli, carrot pudding with coconut ice cream or Puri’s popular rice pudding with pistachios and almonds. Plus, the meal also includes a glass of wine or non-alcoholic beverage.
