Only the Best
We marinate and grill all of our fillings in–house with a proprietary blend of up to 30 hand–ground spices and flavors. All of our meats are certified halal and our chicken is antibiotic and hormone free.
We Do Veg Good
Vegetarians rejoice! We offer a variety of veggie options ranging from pure vegetarian to egg–filled choices. Our parathas are made with butter, but vegans can ask for the roasted whole wheat roti.
Kati Rolls come hot and ready–to–eat on the go, full of meats, fresh cheese and savory Indian spices.
Oh, and we've even got satisfying vegetarian choices too.
Cilantro Chutney & Pickled Onions
All of TKRC rolls are enhanced with our signature lime–cilantro chutney, a medley of sautéed, pickled and fresh onions and a sprinkling of our own Chat Masala spice. We make the chutney fresh every day squeezing the limes and chopping the cilantro by hand.
Roti or Paratha?
Kati rolls are traditionally served in a griddle, layered flat–bread called a paratha.
For a lighter, still flavorful version, ask for the whole wheat, roasted roti which is also vegan.
Our lassi are house made, organic yogurt blended with naturally delicious flavors.
