Indian Appetizers that Stand Out at SAAZ RESTOBAR

1. Chicken Pakoda

A traditional Antipasto Indiano that has turned instantly into a crowd favorite. Tender pieces of chicken are marinated in spices and covered in chickpea flour batter, then deep-fried to a crispy golden brown perfection. The result is a crispy, flavorful bite that pairs beautifully with both cocktails and Indian chutneys.

2. Paneer Pakoda

Vegetarian guests are never at a loss at SAAZ RESTOBAR. Our Paneer Pakoda is a hit among cheese lovers. Indian cottage cheese or paneer is seasoned and fried after being covered in a crispy batter of chickpeas. It has an exterior that is crunchy and an interior that is soft and creamy — the perfect appetizer for those who prefer milder, but satisfying flavors.

3. Pakoda Mix

This vibrant assortment of Indian fritters includes seasonal vegetables such as onions and potatoes, all spiced and dipped in chickpea flour batter. These Antipasti Indiani provide a great variety on a single platter — crunchy, colorful, and addictive.

4. Prawn Pakoda

Seafood lovers will adore our Prawn Pakoda, a delicious twist on the traditional pakora. Shrimp is coated in a seasoned batter and fried until golden. These shrimp fritters make an elegant Antipasto Indiano for theme events, especially when paired with a refreshing drink.

5. Onion Rings (Indian Style)

Our version of onion rings is anything but ordinary. Dipped in gram flour batter and seasoned with Indian spices, these rings are golden, crisp, and full of flavor. They’re especially popular at cocktail-style events or casual gatherings.

Perfect Pairings from the Bar

We understand that appetizers shine even brighter when paired with the right drinks. Our expertly curated bar offers a range of beverages designed to complement your Antipasti Indiani. Choose from classic Indian beverages like Masala Chai, Salted Lassi, and Mango Lassi, or explore premium international spirits and wines like Chardonnay Iava (Italia), Nero D’Avola (Sicilia), or the ever-popular Kingfisher beer.

Looking for something stronger for your theme event? Our mixology techniques feature inventive concoctions using labels such as Jack Daniels, Don Papa Rum, Skyy Vodka, and Bombay Saphire. These drinks not only raise the spirits but also complement the bold spices of each Antipasto Indiano on the menu.
