Before you go

When to go

Late lunch or early dinner after all three kitchens confirm the dishes. Tattvam’s hours differ across listings, so check that day’s service.

Budget and paying

For two or three people, begin with one handvo, one sev tameta and one 200g shrikhand. Bread with the curry and local transport are separate purchases.
