About Royal Feasts: The Thaals
These Thaals are built for a squad of 4 to 6, which means you can stop stressing over ordering individual dishes and just dive into the spread. Whether you pick the Mutton Raan-heavy Akbari Thaal or our Thaal-E-Cheen, the portions are massive and meant for communal eating, so come hungry and ready to share.
Our Thaals are not just plates of food, they are a piece of our heritage brought to the table. We believe that a meal is better when the platter is huge and the conversation is endless.
The Akbari Thaal: A Royal Tribute
This is the big one. It's a celebration of Mughlai classics, centered around our slow-cooked Mutton Raan, which is available in your choice of Malai or Peshawari masala. You also get a full spread of kebabs, butter chicken, and rich mutton gravy, making it perfect for family gatherings where everyone wants a bit of everything.
The Dostana Thaal: For The Squad
Designed for friends, this platter balances the traditional and the fun. You get a mix of fiery Chicken Barra Cream Tandoori, classic Seekh Kebabs, and fusion hits like Chicken Soya Chilly Gravy. It’s the ultimate way to settle the 'what should we order' debate.
Thaal-E-Cheen: The Indo-Chinese Twist
When you crave the street flavors of Old Delhi but with an Oriental spin, this is your go-to. It packs everything from Chicken Lollipops to Schezwan Fried Rice, providing that spicy, tangy kick we love.
Practical Details
Every Thaal is intended to serve 4-6 adults comfortably. Since we prepare these fresh, particularly the slow-cooked Raan and Nihari, they take time to assemble perfectly. If you are planning a weekend visit with a large group, we recommend giving us a heads-up so we can have your table and your feast ready for your arrival.
Delhi Zaika
I grew up obsessed with the flavors of Jama Masjid, and I started Delhi Zaika to bring that same soul to Mumbai. We don't do shortcuts in our kitchen, because authentic Mughlai food needs patience, passion, and the right spices.
