At Kohinoor, the menu is a document of possibilities, not certainties. But we will continue nevertheless. For starters, the pakoras and samosas that are already familiar from the Indian repertoire are normally available, and the kitchen’s rendition of a raita suits them nicely. Chicken boti resembles the tandoor variety (but it’s better than most), and there are often tilapia filets in a rustic gravy; we're especially fond of the aloo pyaz with potato, tomato and a bazaar full of aromatic spices and herbs, and, yes, would return again and again for pickled goat, bones and all. Saturday brings the irresistible achaar chicken, but on any day, should they be available, don’t leave without a betel-leaf packet of masala paan---more spices, even more exotic results.
