After raging success in Alcobaça, the Punjabi owner of this excellent Indian restaurant snagged an even more intimate space in Leiria in the heart of the historic centre. Sensational curries, biryanis and tandoori dishes – he isn't afraid to turn up the heat if you ask for 'Indian spicy' – tantalise all the senses in the cosy and colourful space.
