About Kuki's Tandoori Dhaba - Hove
Traditional Punjabi food inspired by the great roadside Dhaba's of India. We specialise in tandoor cooked dishes. Marinated and cooked to perfection in a traditional tandoor oven. After being unimpressed with the overall quality of Indian food available I decided to take it upon myself and travel to India to train in and collect recipes from the best Panjabi Dhabas (roadside eateries). We offer a delicious selection of the best dishes.
