Most guides to an indian restaurant den haag start with the dishes. This one starts with the people at your table, because a first timer, a vegan and a lamb lover rarely want the same plate.
Every pairing below comes from the menu pages of Indian Curry Club on Thomsonlaan, so you can check each one yourself before you book.
Who should order what at an Indian restaurant in Den Haag?
First timers can pair a creamy chicken curry with the chicken biryani. Vegetarians and vegans can order from the plant-based menu, seafood eaters can try the tandoori prawns, and mixed groups can share the plant-based mains. Guests with allergies should confirm each dish with the restaurant.
What should a first timer order at an Indian restaurant in Den Haag?
Start with a structure rather than a favourite. Take a starter such as the samosa, which comes as two pieces filled with boiled potatoes, peas, raisins and spices, then one creamy curry and one rice dish.
For the curry, chicken korma is described as boneless pieces in a sauce of yogurt and nuts, and mango butter chicken as a creamy tomato curry with cashew nuts and mango. The chicken biryani is chicken cooked with basmati rice and served with raita. That gives you a crisp starter, a sauce to taste and a rice dish in one order.
What can vegetarians and vegans eat at an Indian restaurant in Den Haag?
If you are looking for a vegetarian restaurant the hague, the vegan menu page is the quickest place to read. Its dishes are plant-based as the site states them, so they suit vegetarian guests as well. One guest review on the homepage rates the vegetarian options very nice.
The starters are onion bhajiya, samosa and pani puri. Pani puri is filled with potato, chickpeas and tamarind and comes with tangy mint water, which makes it a different kind of starter from the crisp bhajiya and samosa.
The mains are channa masala (a chickpea curry with cumin, dry ginger and coriander), mix veg (semi dry, with bell peppers and coriander seeds), aloo gobhi adraki (potato and cauliflower with garam masala and fresh ginger) and bhindi do pyaza (okra with onion and tomato). The homepage menu adds saag paneer, garlic flavoured spinach with chunks of paneer, for vegetarians who eat dairy.
Because the mains differ in texture, one person can order two of them without repeating themselves. Pairing the chickpea curry with the semi dry mix veg gives you one saucy dish and one drier one.
What should lamb, chicken and seafood eaters order?
Lamb eaters have two clear options on the homepage menu: lamb chop masala, which is lamb chops in a rich masala sauce, and lamb korma, boneless pieces in a creamy sauce of yogurt and nuts. Chicken eaters have chicken korma, mango butter chicken and the biryani. If the table splits between lamb and chicken, one korma and one masala style dish gives you two different sauces instead of two near copies.
For seafood, tandoori prawns are marinated in mustard and creamy yogurt, cooked in a charcoal oven and served with a yogurt mint sauce. One review on the homepage also praises a salmon tikka, so ask the restaurant if you want it.
How can halal guests choose an Indian restaurant in Den Haag?
Look for a stated certification and a menu you can read in advance. Indian Curry Club shows a Halal Certified badge on its homepage and has a separate Halal Menu page.
If halal status matters for a particular dish, confirm it with the restaurant when you book.
How should a mixed table with a vegan guest order?
Use the vegan menu as the shared middle of the table. The site states those dishes are plant-based, so everyone can eat from them, while the lamb and chicken dishes stay with the guests who eat meat. The korma dishes are built on yogurt and nuts, so they are not for the vegan guest.
That works better than ordering one dish each and passing nothing around. Put two plant-based mains and a starter in the centre, and let the meat eaters add one creamy dish on top.
Order in two rounds, starters and one main each first, then add dishes once you see what the table still wants. The vegan page lists no rice or bread, so ask the restaurant what suits the vegan guest on the side.
Can an Indian restaurant in Den Haag handle a group dinner or catering?
Indian Curry Club is open Monday to Sunday, 5pm to 10pm, at Thomsonlaan 69, 2565 HX Den Haag, and has a reservation page on its website. For groups, send the number of guests and any dietary needs in your first message.
It also offers catering for events from small gatherings to corporate functions, and its site has an events page. You can reach the team on +31 (0)6 49529823, which also works on WhatsApp, or at [email protected].
Write down who eats what before you open the menu. After that, the order is mostly a matter of matching names to dishes.
