Tantra

Team Tantra are on a mission to revolutionise the way we think about Indian dining. They argue that for too long, perceptions of Indian food have always come back to two things: curry and tradition. Their Castle Street venture hopes to break down those old tropes, with a small but essential addition of whimsy. Their progressive menu is stuffed to the gunnels with fun: Scottish mussels, tucked inside edible crisp gold bags? Sizzling tantric mixed grills? Deconstructed desserts? Whatever the dish, diners are promised a multisensory experience where appearance, texture, flavour and aroma all take centre stage. The traditional Indian influences are all there, but the innovation reigns supreme. Oh, and did we mention they’ve a killer cocktail menu too?
