CHASKA runs two full menus under one roof — North Indian, Tandoor, and Indo-Chinese — and first-time guests often ask which way to go. Here's a quick way to decide, or how to order a bit of both.
A Quick Flavour Comparison
North Indian food at CHASKA leans on slow-cooked gravies, dairy (butter, cream, yoghurt) and whole spices like garam masala — flavours that build gradually rather than hit all at once. Indo-Chinese leans on garlic, ginger, soy and chilli fired quickly over high heat — flavours that are sharper and more immediate. Neither is "spicier" by default; they're just different kinds of heat and richness.
Go North Indian If You Want...
Slow-cooked curries, tandoor-roasted meats, and richer, butter-and-cream-based gravies. This is the menu for Butter Chicken, tandoori starters like Chicken Tikka and Paneer Tikka, and dal preparations like Dal Makhani. It's the more traditional, comfort-food route, and the one CHASKA was originally built around in 2005.
Go Indo-Chinese If You Want...
Wok-fired heat, garlic and chilli-forward flavours, and lighter, quicker-to-share starters. This is the menu for Chilli Paneer, Chilli Chicken and Manchurian, plus noodles and fried rice as a meal on their own.
Ordering for a Mixed Group
You don't have to choose one — most tables at CHASKA order from both. A common pattern: one Indo-Chinese starter to open (like Chilli Paneer or Chicken Lollipop), followed by a North Indian curry and breads as the main course. If you'd rather have it pre-decided, the combo menu already bundles both styles — the Chinese Fiesta is Indo-Chinese only, while the Family Feast and Party Pack combos are North Indian—focused with tandoori starters included.
Solo or Quick Meal?
For a single, complete meal, biryani sits between the two — a North Indian preparation that's fast, filling, and doesn't require ordering sides.
Either Way, Same Menu at Both Branches
Whether you land on North Indian, Indo-Chinese, or both, the NIT-5 and Omaxe World Street branches run an identical menu and identical pricing.
