East meets West from the time of the British Raj resulting in a delicious soup served in gentlemen’s clubs since the 19 th century. Based on the South Indian rasam or ‘pepper water’ (in Tamil milagu thani) to which which a wide selection of vegetables and apple have been added, this fragrant soup offers amazing health benefits.

Traditional healing spices in our special curry powder include coriander, red chilli, cumin,
