The food potpourri of Indian cuisine can be identified by North, East, South and West- the four main regional styles.

North India including the north-west frontiers was ruled by the Moghuls – who introduced the dum-pukht (air-cooked) style of cooking.

While exploring palace cuisines, you must try Rajasthani dishes – the state with magnificent forts is also known for its spicy curries and delicious sweets.

The cuisine of South India is created around rice and loved for its light, low calorie appetizing dishes. The common thread in the Southern region is Coconut, which can be wonderfully enjoyed in starters, main course and desserts.
