Why it’s worth it
Thali takes the Chefs Warehouse tapas-for-two format and applies it to modern, non-traditional Indian cooking. A set three-course menu arrives as platters, moving from milder finger foods to spicier curries, with breads made in-house daily and a coal oven. Vegetarian and vegan menus are available. It is not halal.
