ATITHI
Mill Road has more than its fair share of top-notch curry houses – any of which could have made their way on to this list, but one you may not have discovered yet is relative newcomer Atithi. It opened its doors at the start of this year, promising “contemporary Indian cuisine with a sophisticated twist”, and serving an outstanding six-course tasting menu, as well as à la carte, vegan and vegetarian menus, plus the Dawat (sharing) menu. Manning the stoves is head chef Kamaladasan, who spent eight years at the Michelin-starred Tamarind in London, honing his unique style. His creations include six-hour slow-cooked Hyderabadi lamb shank, and stuffed paneer with Indian five spice and dried pickled fig – there’s also staple dishes such as butter chicken masala and daal makhani on the menu.
MILL ROAD BUTCHERS
Beloved of foodies and restaurateurs across the city, Mill Road Butchers stocks a wide range of meat from highly regarded suppliers such as Dingley Dell Farm and Sutton Hoo. As well as meat, the shop sells tasty pies, pasties and other savoury bites, and, after makeover courtesy of local design wizards Loci Interiors, is possibly the most stylish butchers shop you’ll visit. “Hilariously funny, ambitiously hipster butchers with a passion for supplying the best products and customer service around,” is how they describe themselves – and we’re inclined to agree!
