Sagar Ratna - Rajasthani Indian Cuisine
I am a hard core non-vegetarian, how much ever I have tried to eat everything vegetarian I didn't succeed because of the taste. Though I can eat everything veg when I am at home. This is because of the taste difference between home and outside food. I expect veg food to be either equally good to my home cook food or something extra.
In Dubai I have rarely come across such good restaurant which serves authentic fresh veg food. Today I am sharing my experience which I had with Sagar Ratna. It is a pure vegetarian restaurant which serves mainly Marwari style food. The interiors have the Jodhpur vibes with bright colors of Blues and Oranges. I didn't know that Marwari food is mostly on bit spicy side because of which I give them extra points.
What We Tried There:
- Makhaniya Lassi
- Jodhpuri Mirchi Bada
- Jodhpuri Pyaaz Kachori
- Mehrangarh Kebab Platter
- Dal Makhani
- Dhungar Paneer Tikka Masala
- Gutta Curry
- Jaributi Naan
- Tawa Roti with and without Ghee
- Nimbu Pudina Jalzeera
- Rabdi Ghevar
- Masala Tea
We started with the refreshing fresh Makhaniya Lassi, well this lassi is suppose to be eaten and not drink. It is very thick and have fresh butter with dry fruits. It is one of the best lassi I have ever tried you guys definitely #MustHave this.

In this picture we tried a little only but the actual quantity is more which is a huge glass you might need a partner to finish it because it can be little heavy and save a little because food can be little spicy if you are someone who don't like spicy food.
Next from the Mini Bites we tried their Jodhpuri Pyaaz Kachori, Inside a normal kachori there is a layer of onion and potato stuffing, it was really yum.
We also tried their Jodhpuri Mirchi Bada, it is not like a normal mirchi bhaji. It is not only coated from outside but also stuffed from inside. Mint chutney and tamarind chutney complimented well with both of them. My #Favourite was the mirchi bada for the obvious reason because it is spicy. They also make the stuffing with bananas which is something new and you won't feel the sweetness.

For starters we tried their Mehrangh Kebab Platter which had different varieties. It had Hara Bhara kabab, veg seekh kabab, malai paneer, paneer angaar, bharwaan aloo, tandoor gobi. This platter had everything that one vegetarian would love to have. I loved Paneer Angaar and Bharwaan Aloo.

For main course we started with Dhungar Paneer Tikka Masala, it is a ordinary dish but what makes it extra ordinary is the Rajasthani flavors and the fresh paneer which is made in-house everyday. I #HighlyRecommend you to try this dish out.

Lastly we tried Dal Makhani, it had nice consistency and unique flavors. It was very buttery and creamy just the way I expected it to be. The smoke smell was the main twist which enhanced the flavors even more.
