If you love Indian food and you enjoy small surprises on the menu, you will want to make time for a visit to 4500 Miles From Delhi. The kitchen has introduced a few new plates that feel familiar and fresh all at once. They are the kind of dishes you will tell friends about afterwards, the ones that stick in your mind for weeks. Here are three that deserve your attention.
Samosa chaat. A starter that steals the show
Samosa chaat takes the humble samosa and turns it into a proper party on a plate. At 4500 Miles From Delhi they break the samosa into pieces and layer it with cool yogurt, tangy tamarind sauce and a lively green chutney. There is a sprinkling of fresh coriander and a dusting of crunchy sev to give texture. What I love is how each mouthful mixes sharp, sweet and spicy in a way that feels effortless. It is perfect as something to share while drinks arrive. Or order it for yourself and be very pleased with that small selfish moment.
Palak kofta. Comfort food with a clever twist
Palak kofta is one of those dishes that proves vegetarian food can be just as soulful as the meatiest curry. The koftas are light but substantial, made with spinach and spices and cooked until soft. They arrive nestled in a silky spinach sauce that tastes like the best version of home cooking, only a bit more polished. You get the warmth of something slow cooked but it is not heavy. Pair it with fluffy rice or a soft bread and you have a meal that comforts without weighing you down. It is the kind of dish you turn to when you want to feel nourished and a bit smug about your good choice.
Amritsari chana masala. Bold, honest and very moreish
Chana masala is a kitchen classic, and the Amritsari version here leans into deep, familiar flavours without being showy. The chickpeas are tender and the gravy has a rounded tomato base with a warm spice profile that sits beautifully on the tongue. There is a brightness that lifts the dish, maybe a hint of citrus, so it does not feel one note. It is satisfying, bowl after bowl, and it holds up well if you are sharing plates with friends. If you are into dishes that deliver comfort and flavour in equal measure, this one will not disappoint.
Go hungry, come away happy
What ties these three dishes together is balance. Each one shows restraint and confidence. Nothing is overworked or overly fussy. The samosa chaat plays with texture. The palak kofta brings gentle richness. The Amritsari chana masala offers honest, grounded flavour. Together they make a neat trio that says a lot about a kitchen that knows its roots and is happy to have a bit of fun.
