The rotis and chapattis are grilled on a griddle above an exclusive tray.

Most of the menu of Masala Art is traditional but there are simple variations in some of them. The starters in the menu are relishing. Both the vegetarian and non vegetarian variety are delectable. Particularly noteworthy are the makai motia seekh, a fritter of cheese, corn and peppers, marked by its characteristic sourness, resultant from amchur; and the chicken seasoned with blistered garlic and cardamom.

Galouti kebab, a pie of daintily minced lamb tempered with 136 spices, is most appealing for the special paratha -- buttery layered bread, cooked in a skillet -- on which it sits. Prepared out of semolina, saffron and a bit of sugar, the dish is sweet, crusty, slender, striking and golden. If you are inquisitive enough to know about how its made , then you can always sit at the counter, and watch it being made (within a minute). Hot deep-fried ladyfish, a local specialty, is done exquisitely here.
