EAT IN - TAKE OUT “Best in the City.” Kathy Tait, The Province
Classic East Indian Cuisine
When the Raga opened in 1981, it set the standard for all other East Indian restaurants in Vancouver, offering world-class classic North Indian cuisine. The menu designed by Indira Gandhi’s chef Kopotra, features more than one hundred dishes. Over the years, the Raga has played host to many people, including Ravi Shankar, Mel Gibson, Tina Turner and Bryan Adams, to name a few. All the servers, many of whom have been there more than twenty years, are able to explain the intracacies of the menu, especially for those customers who have food allergies. The Raga “Serves food fit for the legendry Mughal emperors. Raga’s charcoal-fired tandoor produces luxuriously tender meat. Chicken is unbelievably juicy, prawns are plump and tender. Light curries allow the spices to sing - this is why you fell for Indian food in the first place. Many vegetarian options are available.” (Vancouver Magazine April, 2008)
