@Bollywood Masala we aim to be identified for our distinctive food, fine ambience
and excellent customer service.
So what is Bollywood? According to the TIME Magazine (an article by Richard Corliss entitled That Old Feeling: Bollywood Fever appearing in
the June 2003 edition of the TIME magazine) the word was coined by an Indian
journalist in the 70s to convey the message that Bombay (where Hindi-language
films are made) was a rival of Hollywood, refers in the larger sense to
Indian pop cinema - the world's most teeming film industry, an exotic,
rhapsodic blend (a “bollywood masala”) of chuckles and tears, song and dance.
Thus the name Bollywood Masala aims to capture the essence of India - movies
and food - not necessarily in that order! Indeed, the Bollywood theme
is not pre-dominant through the restaurant, but is used as a means of subtly
identifying ourselves with India in all its glorious colours. The
restaurant, designed by well known interior designer Sonia Archer, has
a contemporary and warm feel to it. Aside from our flavour some curries,
an antique Indian door is the only obvious link to our Indian heritage.
The door theme is carried through to our innovatively presented menu.
