Fourth restaurant coming for Tamatanga group

Following the success of the Nottingham, Leicester and Birmingham venues, Indian restaurant concept Tamatanga has announced plans for a fourth opening.

Scheduled for early summer, Tamatanga’s next eatery will be located at The Light on The Headrow in the heart of central Leeds. 

The menu will offer a mix of both the familiar and the slightly less expected, along with classic dishes updated with a modern twist. The Tamatanga thali has become something of a signature dish – the large variety platter offers the choice of one or two different curries, whilst the remaining dishes are created and changed daily by an expert all-Indian kitchen team using local, seasonal ingredients. 

Another menu highlight is the crispy coated Tama chips, featuring a secret blend of spices the Tamatanga team have been using since 2008. 

The menu has been carefully crafted to include a wide range of meat, veggie, vegan and gluten-friendly dishes. The salads and grill plates come loaded with healthy ingredients such as butternut squash, quinoa, avocado and chickpeas. 

A range of cocktails will also be offered, from the Peachy Blinder to the Wray’s Sorbet which blends tequila, strawberry cream soda and Wray and Nephew overproof rum.

"We’re absolutely thrilled to be bringing our food to a city as vibrant as Leeds. Our fresh, homely and very real approach to cooking is perfect for lunch, dinner and anything in between. From warming curries to flavourful salads and heavenly small plates, there’s something for everyone," says Mona Kula, creative director for the group. 

The new restaurant has 160 covers (40 in the bar and 120 in the restaurant) and will create 50 new jobs.
