Tandoori chicken, jeera rice and dal fry 

If a restaurant is named SardaarJi, it would take someone as clueless as Supandi from comic book Tinkle to wonder what sort of cuisine it serves. But some Punjabi eateries veer away from staples from the state to also venture into Sino-Ludhianvi cuisine, where monosodium glutamate is often the overriding component in every dish. Thankfully, this particular joint on Juhu Versova Link Road sticks to the basics. And the fact that we are in the mood for classic North Indian grub is reflected in the order we place on a weeknight - tandoori chicken, dal fry, jeera rice, tandoori roti and butter chicken.
