Just had the most amazing meal at Indian Cafe Racer - 10/10!! Standout dishes were the gobi manchurian (loved the sticky sweet and sour sauce with a spicy kick), red mullet moilee (with a delicious creamy coconut sauce), dahi puri (to die for - a flavoursome combo of yogurt, tamarind and mint in a crispy shell to cool the palette), and the chicken makhani (delicious chicken curry to scoop up with the most light, crispy naan we’ve had) 😍 Rounded off with a fantastic karak chai! And not to forget the exceptional cocktails - I had the mango sassy which was amazing as well as having an iconic name! The service was incredible with warm, welcoming staff who are proud to talk you through their menu and vision. Our only complaint is that they haven’t expanded to London yet, as we are only in Birmingham for one night! We’ll be watching on social media and hoping to see a branch pop up in London soon!!! 🤞

This Indian restaurant was a wonderful discovery with very attentive service; all the dishes were delicious and we enjoyed ourselves both with our taste buds and our ears with good music.
