If you're looking for an unforgettable culinary experience, Cottage Express offers a menu that will undoubtedly tickle your taste buds. From savory appetizers to flavorful entrees, there’s something for everyone.

Starting with the Soup and Appetizers, the Samosa is a perfect crispy bite, with its golden exterior and spicy filling that’s sure to set the tone. If you're in the mood for something warm and comforting, the Mulligatawny Soup and Manchow Soup offer a rich, hearty experience with the perfect balance of spices. For a lighter option, the Sweet Corn Soup is a smooth, slightly sweet delight, while the Samosa Chaat adds a burst of flavor with its tangy chutneys.

Moving to the Tandoori Specials, Tandoori Chicken is always a crowd favorite, with its smoky, tender texture from the tandoor oven. The Chicken Tikka is similarly juicy and flavorful, marinated in spices that bring out the best in every bite.

For those who crave rich, comforting flavors, the Entrees section is a must-try. The Tikka Masala is creamy, spicy, and indulgent, while the Butter/Makhani dishes bring a silky smooth sauce that pairs perfectly with any of the curries, including the aromatic Korma and the vibrant, leafy Palak.

No Indian meal is complete without a serving of Biryani, and Cottage Express delivers with options like Chicken Biryani, CG Special Biryani, and even Biryani Shrimp for seafood lovers. For vegetarians, the Biryani Veg is an explosion of flavors and textures.

To complement the meal, try the soft Garlic Naan or the buttery Butter Naan; for a bit of spice, the Chilli Garlic Naan hits the spot.

And finally, Desserts like Gulab Jamon and Rasmalai add a sweet touch, with the perfect finish to an incredible meal.

Whether it’s a refreshing Mango Lassi or a chilled soda, the drinks menu is designed to keep you hydrated and happy. Don’t forget to add a little extra with chutneys or a side of fragrant Mint Chutney.
