The menu is a rich journey through the culinary
heritage of Persia, the Middle East, and North India — regions united by a
shared love for bold spices, slow cooking, and generous hospitality. Expect
tender meats simmered to perfection, deeply aromatic gravies, fragrant rice
dishes, handcrafted breads, and vibrant accompaniments. Each plate reflects an
ingredient-first philosophy, celebrating balance, depth of flavour, and an elegant
yet unfussy style of presentation.

Our quirky choices included:
Osttaad’s menu offers a thoughtful interplay of
texture, tradition, and innovation. The tender coconut and raw mango salad is a
refreshing opener — light, tangy, and full of tropical brightness. The Mushroom
Balkawa (the showstopper) surprises with its layered crunch and umami depth, a
clever nod to the classic sweet. Earthy and smoky, the raw banana and pulled
jackfruit shashlik holds its own with bold spice and satisfying heft. Surely, a must try.

For the mains, we chose the fresh methi chaman fish
curry which brings a delicate balance of rustic bitterness and creaminess.
Don’t miss out on the comforting richness of the Osttaad-e-Adasi, a soulful
black gram dal which is super-slupry and delish. Well paired with the meal the
Afghan khameeri and sheermal (a nom nom creation) — both soft, fragrant breads
that elevate every bite.
For
desserts, we opted for the Umali as a warm, indulgent finale. Comforting yet
elegant, not too overbearing on the sweet quotient, it’s a dessert that lingers
long after the last spoonful.
For
cocktails, we chose the Tashkent Twilight – a tangy variation with superb
lilting notes. The Bartender Special (not in the menu) was a sparkling delight,
just loved it. Ifshan Rose, the mocktail, has an Iranian feel to the sweetness
which made the meal more enjoyable.
OSTTAAD’S menu surely manages to feel both
inventive and deeply rooted. The gravies are light, silky and the smooth
textures are lilting. Our rating is 10 Stars!!
