Our thalis are all about bold, earthy flavors and ingredients straight from home. If you’re looking for something different from the usual, this is it. ### What’s Inside the Thali - Rice, always the main part - Daal, made our way - Main curry: veg, chicken, pork, fish, or mutton - Veggies: stir-fried (Kanghou) and boiled greens (Champhut) - Chutney: Morok Metpa or Eromba for that spicy kick ### Flavors That Hit Hard Our food isn’t shy. We use bamboo shoot (fresh and fermented), king chilli (Bhoot Jolokia), and lots of fermented stuff. The Naga-style pork with bamboo shoot is a favorite, and the king chilli chutney is for those who like it really spicy. Sometimes, it’s so fiery you’ll say, “*Aiyo, yeh kya hai!*” (Oh wow, what is this!). ### Thali Choices - Manipuri mushroom thali for veg lovers - Chicken thali with mushrooms - Assamese Rohu fish curry - Smoked pork thali with dry bamboo shoot - Mutton thali, Nepali-style - Chef’s special: Assamese Till Pork Thali ### Served the Real Way We serve everything on brass plates (Kansa), lined with banana leaf. It’s not just food, it’s a piece of our culture. If you want a full pet bharne wali (stomach-filling) meal with real flavors, you’ll find it here. ## Highlights Browse through Singju's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/singju.in/northeastern-regional-thalis/featured) - ![This is my Chef’s Special Assamese Till Pork Thali, a dish that truly represents the soul of Assam.
