Massala is no ordinary high street curry house. Located in the prosperous commuter village of Cobham, where the average house prices are more £1.5 million, the restaurant has been named one of the three top Indian restaurants in the UK by the Cobra Good Curry Guide 2013.
The area is not just home to Chelsea’s multimillionaire footballers – their training ground is nearby. Many international sporting and show biz figures also live nearby. Chef Sinha is unfazed by the illustrious clientele that come through his doors, having the past cooked for Princes Charles and the late Princess of Wales.
The restaurant also offers a five star wines list to complement the outstanding food. Created by Massala’s Sommelier Maria Rodriguez, who previously worked with Gordon Ramsay and Terence Conran. The list includes a Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru, Rollin 1998 at £133 and the Dom Pérignon 1999 Champagne costs £200 a bottle.
As recognition of the outstanding food, wine and service, Massala was awarded the Top 30 best in Britain award for Indian restaurants in 2011, and winner of the best signature dish in 2010 and 2011 for its Monkfish Malabar Massala is named one of the top three in the country by the Cobra Good Curry Guide 2013.
Massala serves ancient traditional Indian food, with every dish prepared and cooked fresh daily, using only the best locally sourced ingredients. Chef Sinah re introduced some long forgotten recipes of rural India, which are regularly recognised at the National Curry awards in London.
The kitchen employs a charcoal tandoor, which is use for slow roasting mutton overnight (make your own jokes about mutton and lamb here).
Master classes: Chef Sinha offers mater classes in people’s own homes on the 2nd Saturday of each month, between 10:30 am – 2:00pm at £60pp.
