Tasting menu at Mogul India
If you’ve explored the Indian food scene in Stavanger and Sandnes, you’ve probably noticed that many menus lean heavily on butter chicken, tikka masala etc. That’s why Mogul India feels like a breath of fresh air.

The wine list has also grown since our last visit, now with a thoughtful wine pairing option to match the menu.

We booked an early Saturday evening table and arrived to a nearly empty room — just two other guests. It’s a compact,
