Zycca Indian Restaurant We are open
from wed to sat for dinners only.
We can do lunches or private functions
but bookings are essential.
Wednesday to friday nights is our special
Thaali nights! A Thaali is a traditional
well balanced meal served on a
metal plate and includes dessert.
The word ‘Thali’ simply refers to the special stainless steel plate that the meal is served on. Millions of Indians eat Thali’s every lunch and dinnertime; it’s a traditional well-balanced meal that has kept a country healthy and nourished for centuries. The meal consists of a protein dish usually in the form of panner (Indian cheese) or fish, wild and sustainable of course, a lentil dish such as samber or dahl, a seasonal vegetable accompaniment served with rice and salad. The individual recipes will vary to the according region and the spices woven into the food are chosen for their nourishment as much as for taste.
The beauty of serving Thali’s is that we can concentrate on producing a few dishes well; we use the best possible ingredients, which are fresh and free from GM foods, additives or preservatives. |

One of the driving factors that led us to opening our restauarant was the thousands of Indian restaurants up and down the country that all insisted on serving the same inauthentic rich, creamy curries that bore no resemblance to what you may get in an Indian home. In contrast the food served at the Zycca is based on Arti's mum's own recipes which have been passed on to her from generation to generation of Indian mothers to daughters.

HI Aarti,
I just wanted to let you know that my friends and I really enjoyed dinner at your restaurant on saturday night, and the authentic and delicate flavours of the beautiful dishes have really stuck in our minds and will be there for a long time.
thanks again for letting us taste your mums beautiful cooking.
If you could possible beg your mum for the eggplant recipe I would be eternally grateful. I have a vege garden full of eggplants that are ripe right now, and if I could cook that dish with them, it would be an awesome use for them. The pepper chicken also really rocked our world, so maybe you could hint to me that one???
I live in sydney but every time I am in the mountains i am going to drop in for sure. i am also going to tell anyone I know about the hidden gem that is Zycca for when they are up there too.
Thank you again for making Indian food so interesting and authentic again.
