Bombay Palace (Wānaka)
Michelin Bib Gourmand
Our verdict
The snug room juggles contemporary and traditional Indian motifs, but it’s the terrace commanding unobstructed views of Lake Wanaka that will blow you away. The menu spans the diverse food culture of South India and Mumbai with traditionally crafted recipes. For larger parties, the tandoori platter is a great way to start the meal. The rich, satisfying curry butter chicken with garlic naan is even better with a glass of mango lassi to cut through the richness.
