New Delhi

Kampala, Uganda

Indian

Yes, New Delhi is in Kampala. Though certainly not as vast as its namesake, this restaurant’s expansive size follows closely in the footsteps of its spacious Ugandan brethren.

New Delhi hosts a panoply of seating areas, as if the owners couldn’t quite make up their minds which theme to implement, so they simply chose them all. First, there is indoor seating, which is white walled, clean, and somewhat lacking in appeal. Open to the outdoor air is a wooden, grass roof structure housing rows of tables. Even further along the restaurant’s path are candlelit tables perched beneath navy blue canopies. This area is the most private and overlooks the garden, a spread of green grass with a large tree settled at the edge. Even though they seem to be taking a leaf out of the Three Little Pigs’ book, the lack of uniformity is certainly not to their disadvantage. Throughout the restaurant each seating area is welcoming and distinct.

Feeling experimental once, I tried the Murg Do Pyaaza, a type of chicken described as the chef’s special. The chicken was a little too peppery for my liking.  However, classic dishes like the Murg Makhani and Dhal Makhani are luscious and buttery. I've eaten many satisfying meals from New Delhi, but my favorite dish is the Bhindi Masala, an okra dish with a subtle zing that even has those who doubt okra reaching for more.
