Today we will make a gastronomical trip to India, thanks to the\u00a0restaurant Bembi<\/b>.<\/p>\n

\"bcncolours_bembi06\"<\/p>\n

“Bembi” is a word used in Mumbai (India) which means belly button. It is the bond between the baby and the mother, the connection between what exists and what does not. With this same goal, Bemb\u00ec pretends to be\u00a0a gastronomic link between\u00a0India and Barcelona<\/p>\n

The indian food is fabulous, and besides if it is cooked by chefs with an excellent reputation like\u00a0Anand Singh Negi<\/strong>,it is a total success.<\/p>\n

A chef cooking with local first class\u00a0products<\/strong>, as it can be seen endorsed by the diploma of the Institut Municipal de Mercats de Barcelona, that\u00a0proudly is shown off in the restaurant.<\/p>\n

The decoration<\/strong> is very modern and cozy<\/strong>. You can go with your family, with kids, because they have high chairs, changer in the bathroom, wide spaces to move with the baby stroller, etc..<\/p>\n

But we recommend this restaurant for a special occasion<\/strong>, those ones that you leave children with grandparents (or babysitter) and go\u00a0out to enjoy a romantic dinner with your partner, savoring the delicious Indian cuisine<\/strong> in a unique and elegant restaurant.<\/p>\n

Or for a fun dinner with friends<\/strong> with Bollywood<\/strong> dance \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The service is courteous\u00a0and very friendly, always willing to explain the contents of the dishes. We ordered a tasting menu<\/strong> of 26.50 euros, which I will explain in detail below:<\/p>\n

As starters, <\/b>they\u00a0\u00a0brought some tapas of the typical dishes of the Indian cuisine<\/p>\n

\"bcncolours_bembi12\"<\/p>\n

SAMUDRI RATTAN:\u00a0Grilled scallop<\/strong>\u00a0on a smooth saffron sauce flavored with garlic. Delicious.<\/p>\n

PUNJAB SAMOSA:\u00a0A crispy triangle of\u00a0vegetables, <\/strong>dumpling type, stuffed with potato, peas and spices, with tamarind sauce.You know that we are fans of all international versions of the dumplings!<\/p>\n

LASOONI MURGH TIKKA:\u00a0A juicy\u00a0chicken steak\u00a0<\/strong>marinated\u00a0in yogurt and garlic cooked in tandoor oven. They accompany it\u00a0with the mango sauce, and it was spectacular. (the chicken is in the picture above, the piece of meat on\u00a0the right, which was stuck with the dumpling\u00a0and I have not been able to separate<\/p>\n

LUCKNOWI SEEK:\u00a0a skewer of tasty lamb<\/strong>, also cooked in tandoor oven. If you like the spicy, you can accompany it with the spicy sauce they put on the table. We have put the mint sauce, and it was delicious.<\/p>\n

Then for main course, they\u00a0brought us the Thali.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"bcncolours_bembi17\"<\/p>\n

The Thali is a selection of different dishes served in small bowls and accompanied by Zafrani Pulao (rice with saffron<\/strong>) and Naan<\/strong>, the typical\u00a0Indian bread.<\/p>\n

In the photo above, clockwise, from left to right, we can see:<\/p>\n

MURGH MAKHANWALA:\u00a0T<\/strong>ikka Masala chicken<\/b><\/p>\n

SAAG PANER:\u00a0Spinach with fresh cottage cheese<\/strong>. My favorite. Delicious!<\/p>\n

NARUYAL JHINGA:\u00a0Curry prawns<\/strong>\u00a0 with a creamy coconut based\u00a0Kerala sauce.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

KOHE ROGANJOSH: curry lamb stew<\/strong>\u00a0with tomato, ginger and Kasmir chillies.<\/p>\n

RAITA: a yogurt sauce with a flavour of cumin.<\/p>\n

All sauces are spectacular in restaurant Bembi. Watch these spicy sauces, mint and mango- from left to right- what they look like:<\/p>\n

For dessert, we tried the Gulab Jamun, very sweet\u00a0and served with ice cream.<\/p>\n
