About Us
Report
Mrs. Boon Ganeshram owns and runs Tanjore Restaurant with her husband Dr. Raja Ganeshram in Edinburgh. As a native of South India, I know that south indian food can be both healthy and exciting. I found my friends in Edinburgh agreeing with me when they come over to our place for a bite. This is what inspired me to start Tanjore Restaurant.
Our Food
Report
Tanjore Restaurant is proud to serve you authentic South Indian cuisine that is both wholesome and delicious true to the Cholan tradition. Rice, lentils and other legumes are crushed to make batter for the wonderful dosas, idlies, vadais and uttapams always made fresh to your order. These are served with heavenly sambar (dal soup dip) and perfectly matched mouth-watering chutneys-all created deliciously from original recipes in house.
