TAMALA TASTE OF INDIA

You'll find Tamala tucked away on Orchard Street, in that stretch where Weston actually feels like it's got some proper character. Walk in and you're immediately met with the smell of actual spices being used properly—cumin, cardamom, the lot—which tells you straight away this isn't going to be another tired curry house serving the same old kormas to stag dos. The place has earned its 4.7 rating by doing what it does without pretension: cooking Indian food that respects its traditions while clearly understanding what works for a Weston audience. The fact that locals keep coming back says everything.
