Desserts and Breads
No Indian meal is complete without indulging in its traditional breads and desserts. Bengal Tiger’s selection includes warm, freshly baked Garlic Naan , infused with fragrant garlic, or the subtly herbed Rosemary Naan . For a sweeter finish, savor classic delights such as Gulab Jamun , soft milk-solid dumplings soaked in rosewater syrup, or the creamy, cardamom-spiced Kheer , a comforting rice pudding that soothes the soul.
Drinks
