THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED La Porte des Indes Restaurant Review:


La Porte des Indes has a funky interior of bright red and blue lights and crystal raining from the ceiling, and features a full bar and lounge area where guests can unwind after work or a long day of shopping. It can be accessed through The Address hotel or the Dubai Mall towards the back side of Bloomingdale’s. The menu takes inspiration from the French colonized area of India known as Pondicherry. There’s a good variety of grills, chaats and other savory bites, including the pepper crabs --- garlic and black pepper seasoned, deep-fried soft shells served with a ginger and green mango sauce. Mains consist of a number of curries, rice dishes, proteins and bread. The most popular of the entrées is the crevettes assadh, tiger prawns simmered in a mild coconut curry with green mangoes, turmeric, chilies and ginger, paired with rice or hot naan. Mango and pistachio lassi is a must and could double as a drink or dessert. Among the other confectionery items, the safe option would be the Belgian chocolate mousse, but when in a modern Indian restaurant, err on the side of adventure with the madras coffee crème brûlée or saffron and passion fruit cheesecake. La Porte des Indes offers a basic wine list with a range of bottles, from European varietals to New Zealand and South American labels. Cocktails and “mocktails” are a strong suit; if you’re looking for something really unique, go for the “Spicesutra” with hints of spiced rum.
