Qalamkarri carries an intricate inspiration from Kalamkari, a century's old folk tradition of hand-printing cotton fabric as a form of story-telling in southern India, and the Arabic word for pen, 'Qalam'. The restaurant weaves the tale of the evolution of Indian classics and its innovative renditions of other cuisines, including the crispy dough balls stuffed with potatoes and mint water 'Pani Puri'; Indian-style fish and chips, 'Fish Koliwada Chips'; and the unmissable prawns in lime marinade, 'Kache Nimbu ka Jhinga'.
