We visited the Khandani Rajdhani Thali in Central Mall in JP Nagar last Sunday to savour a Rajasthani meal served in their traditional style by the waiters dressed in white kurtas and red turbans. Being a Sunday lunch all the tables were occupied and we had to wait a while before we could get one. It is better to reserve a table before going.
Our empty shining stainless steel platter with about 10 small katoris (bowls) were laid out neatly on the tables waiting to be filled one by one. First they served a few chutneys, pickles, followed by salad, a couple of heart shaped vegetable cutlets, and a sandwich dhokla. This was followed by dal bati churma, gatte ki sabji, paneer masala and aloo peas, as the vegetable dishes, accompanied by phulkas, parathas and puris as per your choice. This was followed by three sweet dishes, gajjar halwa with gulab jamun, moong dal halwa, and ghevar topped with rabdi. Then they served three types of dal with khichdi, pulao or plain rice and curds. There was a glass of chaas too, and a choice of an extra drink; sweet lassi, mango lassi, jal-jeera or lemon sherbet which was chargeable.
The service was good and prompt, but the water for hand-wash, which they brought around in a brass jug with a brass basin, was cold. The thali is priced quite high but we found out later that they offer the same thali at almost half the rate on Tuesdays.
The dhokla and some sweet dal gave the vegetarian Rajasthani meal a Gujarati twist. The dishes were sprinkled with dollops of ghee. We quite enjoyed the taste of all the dishes, which were not very spicy. At the end of it all we were so full that we could hardly get out of our chairs.
