Welcome to Maharaja Authentic Indian Restaurant, where the ancient art of tandoor cooking comes alive in the heart of Palawan. Our tandoori specialties are more than just dishes; they are a celebration of traditional Indian culinary techniques, offering a unique and unforgettable dining experience.
Tandoor cooking involves using a cylindrical clay oven, known as a tandoor, to cook meats, vegetables, and breads at high temperatures. This method imparts a distinctive smoky flavor and seals in the natural juices, resulting in incredibly tender and flavorful dishes. At Maharaja, our skilled chefs meticulously prepare and marinate each item before carefully placing it in the tandoor, ensuring a perfect balance of taste and texture.
Embark on a culinary journey through our extensive tandoori menu, designed to tantalize your taste buds with a symphony of flavors. From succulent kebabs to marinated tikkas, each dish is a masterpiece of Indian gastronomy.
Our Tandoori Chicken is a must-try for any visitor. Marinated in a blend of yogurt, ginger, garlic, and aromatic spices, the chicken is slow-cooked in the tandoor, resulting in a smoky and flavorful delight. Served with a side of mint chutney and lemon wedges, it’s a dish that captures the essence of Indian cuisine.
For meat lovers, our Seekh Kebab is an absolute delight. Made from finely minced lamb or chicken, mixed with herbs, spices, and a touch of ginger and garlic, these kebabs are skewered and cooked to perfection in the tandoor. The result is a melt-in-your-mouth experience that leaves you craving for more.
Vegetarians can indulge in our Paneer Tikka, a dish made from fresh Indian cheese (paneer) marinated in a blend of spices and yogurt. The paneer is then grilled in the tandoor, giving it a smoky flavor and a slightly charred texture. Served with a side of mint chutney, it’s a perfect appetizer or main course.
Experience the flavors of the sea with our Tandoori Seafood options. Our Tandoori Prawns and Fish Tikka are marinated in a blend of spices and herbs, then cooked in the tandoor to perfection. The smoky flavor of the tandoor complements the delicate taste of the seafood, creating a truly unique and unforgettable dish.
No tandoori meal is complete without our freshly baked breads. Our tandoor oven churns out a variety of breads, including naan, roti, and paratha, each perfectly complementing our tandoori dishes.
