Located on the lobby level of the Taj Vivanta hotel,the fine dining restaurant, Indus Express, traces a vintage journey across pre-Partition, undivided India’s North West Frontier. The menu is an exceptional treasure trove of home-style recipes from Kashmir, Pothovar (present-day Peshawar), Rawalpindi, Amritsar, Khyber and Lahore. The restaurant name is derived from the five rivers – Jhelum, Sutlej, Beas, Ravi and Chenab- which flow through the Indus basin region, creating a robust food trail. Family recipes from along this trail have been patiently researched and recreated by our chefs, using fresh hand-pounded masalas (spice mixes), complex cooking techniques which - often, literally - involve a trial by fire and bucketfuls of soul.
