Indian food and drinks you could try having

Whether you like Indian food at a buffet or a stylish restaurant, you’ve maybe wondered what to sip with it. The food tends to be pretty balanced and might not require the acidity or bitterness that beer or wine can offer. That doesn’t mean that they can’t improve the dining experience. You can experiment with some drinks at an Indian restaurant in Brisbane. 

1. Tandoori roasted meats 

Beer: Think a Saison, like Saison Dupont. It’s energizing to cut the fattiness of the meat, but it also gives fruit and spice in its own right.

Wine: Find some Chenin Blanc, Riesling, and Verdelho, which tend to have stone fruit taste, as well as Scheurebe, for its oily nature and funky smokiness.

Ask if any North Indian restaurant of Brisbane if they serve drinks and especially the mentioned above ones. 

2.      Creamy Curries

Beer: Lagers are a fine bet. They’re even/smooth and bready, with maltiness to cut through the rich cream gravy. A Munich-style pale Helles or a Pilsner also works.

Wine: Red wine with a fine balance of tannin and acidity is essential here. Some recommend Austrian Blaufränkisch or Syrah from Northern Rhône or California. 

3.      Mild Vegetable-Paneer Dishes

Beer: One may like to pair mild, malty porter with many types of vegetable food, particularly when there are hot spices like garam masala in the dish. 

Cocktail: Did you know, Rooh makes a chai punch with Assam tea and grapefruit shrub? It goes well with most of the vegetarian dishes. You can try pairing similarly tangy, tannic cocktails at home. 

4.      Spicy Vindaloos

Cocktail: You can opt for something crunchy and fresh, with some spice to it. A spicy ginger beer and mango mule, with the tart fruit, for example, would be perfect.

Wine: You can have the fragrant, tropical-tinged Grüner Veltliner with leaner proteins and Loire Valley Chenin Blanc is also a safe and sound bet with anything hot.

Either you order an Indian takeaway in Brisbane or you can visit an Indian restaurant Redlandbay for all the food and drinks. 

Before you visit a North Indian cuisine in Alexandra hills make sure you have all the safety measures taken. This is the time of the pandemic and you need to be careful with everything you do. Maintain distance, wear masks, book a table beforehand so that the crowd is less for lesser exposure to the virus.
