New Bombay Indian Restaurant

Indian food today, New Bombay in Manila

So far on my short stay here in Manila I’ve eaten me through two different countries. Now it’s time for the third country India. It’s not that I don’t like Filipino food on the contrary I do, but soon enough I will travel out in the province where Filipino food will be the only option.

New Bombay, the menu was thick like a bible

Time was still relatively early so it was very quiet when I was here

The menu was like a bible

I am far from being a specialist on Indian food but it seems to me that’s nothing was missing in the menu. Mutton, chicken, fish and seafood in many varieties. There were lot’s of vegetarian dishes without any meat as well. So down below are just some samples of what was available.

Paneer is fresh cheese which is a common ingredient in the Indian kitchen

I tried the Chicken Cafrala

Together with the Paneer dishes there were lot’s of options for the vegetarian to eat

I got the mandatory Naan bread with garlic and cheese. Super delicious!

The food

​I ordered Chicken Cafrala, cubes of boneless chicken cooked in onion cashew gravy with coconut milk, garnished with grated cheese and cashew nuts with rice and Naan bread with garlic and cheese. The portion was not gigantic but together with the Naan bread it was totally enough for me and I consider myself as a big eater after all.

Garlic and cheese Naan bread

Chicken Cafrala

As usual I forgot to order the rice which was not included. In Sweden where I come from the rice is always included so it’s easy to forget that when you are abroad.

Conclusion

The food was delicious. The flavor was rich and spicy and together with the Naan bread it was super. Service was nice and swift. The prices are low to midrange. All together my lunch here was very pleasant and I will be back some day!
