What to expect
Our Pav Bhaji is a creamy mix of mashed vegetables and spices served with buttered buns. It is a proper meal, not a snack, and it is on the All Day Breakfast menu so you can order it at any time we are open.
02
Why it works in Ottawa
Pav bhaji suits Ottawa’s cold months well: it is warm, buttery and filling, and one plate with extra pav can feed two lighter eaters. Because it is mild and creamy, it is also a good dish to order if you are introducing Indian food to someone who does not like strong heat.
