Price: Moderate
• Indian • Raynes Park
Sai serves authentic Punjabi cuisine with tandoor cooking a speciality. The spice range is broad, from minimal to high levels and vegetables forming the backbone of the menu. Wheat is the staple food of Punjabis; however, they do enjoy eating rice at festivals and other special occasions. When it comes to food, each region within Punjab has an entirely different preference, for example, people in Amritsar are particularly fond of stuffed parathas and milk products. The philosophy of life for many Punjabis is to eat, drink and make merry. They are lively people who are extremely fond of eating good food. In the preparation of Punjabi food, onion, ginger and garlic are used extensively to enhance the taste of the food.**NEW***SUNDAY BRUNCH 11am to 3pm, try Indian street food from different part of India with unlimited KADAK CHAI.****LUNCH****Now open for lunch Tuesday-Saturday 12-3pm.

    Dining at Scarpetta was nothing short of extraordinary truly one of the best restaurant experiences of my life. The warm, inviting ambiance set the perfect tone, and the service was flawless attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming. The short rib ragù pasta was pure perfection, with rich, deep flavors that melted in my mouth. The aubergine with wild mushrooms was cooked to absolute perfection, bursting with smoky, earthy goodness. And then came the tiramisu light, airy, and decadent, the perfect sweet ending to an unforgettable meal. Every bite was a masterpiece, every moment exceptional. Scarpetta exceeded all expectations—I’ll be dreaming about this meal until I return. 11/10!

    Satisfactory dining experience. I visited Jang for dinner TWO days in a row. Yesterday I didn't get much but today, everything was fine. Me and my colleagues were happy to explore Jang's lovely and tasty dishes. As a Korean, bossam tower is something you should try.
