Temptations - Indian Chinese Fusion

Here are some information which will help you to understnd our system of the Menus. We have two distinct menus. One is Indian Chinese Fusion and the Second is Authentic Indian.

Indian Chinese Fusion
Indian Chinese Fusion has dishes developed originally in India, specifically in Bombay and Calcutta. These dishes have come up from the roadside cooking from Chinese Immigrants In India. They are all sauces based and these sauces are not typiclly used in traditional Indian food. Indian consider this “Indian-Chinese Fusion” (Desi Chinese) food as nostalgic. It has one dish which is Hakka Noodles and comes up with Veg. or chicken or shrimp and named after the Chinese Immigrant from Hakka region. Other dishes are minced veg. balls or chicken pieces or shrimp comes up with various sauces such as Ginger, Garlic, Munchurian (soya based), Chilly and so on. These food are made completly fresh after the order is given.
Another controversial dish is “American Chopsuey” and it is made in the restaurant by our cooks the way it was catered in Bombay. So sometime poeple from Delhi can’t relate to it as these food started transforming as the chinese started going to move into differnt regions and changing the taste to match to the people of that region. So some people love it and some people don’t love it. But this dish is supposedly to be shared on the tables with the group and not have it by yourself.
Authentic Indian
Authentic Indian menu offers dishes from North India. Here the dishes encompasses Items from Tandoor (Clay Oven) and includes chicken, lamb, fish and ofcourse very soft and melting Naan, Garlic naan (Indian Breads)and so on. Tandoori Roti is made up with wheat flour while naan are made up with fine wheat flour. Also, the menu offers seafood curry and various curry based dishes including vegetables.

In conclusions, the thought of having two menus help us to include all kinds of people. People who are not based in origin from India will love Indian food, which they are familiar with but these are much better, fresher than many other restaurants. People who miss Desi Chinese (Indian-Chinese Fusion) food can come and enjoy the food and ambience at out restaurant Temptations.
Afterall we need to be in the business on Castro street. It is very logical thinking to come up with two menus at Temptations Restaurant.

Come and Enjoy outside seating surrounded with beautiful plants.
