Indian-style brunch
If you've been to Dishoom then you've probably heard of their infamous naan rolls. Freshly baked in the tandoor and topped with cream cheese, tomato chutney jam and coriander, then filled with a filling of your choice. Pair it with a side of masala beans and a warm chai and you've got yourself a pretty special brunch.
