Get together at Itihaas for Christmas
Introducing the Itihaas Christmas Menu 2024
We are now taking bookings for parties of 6 or more for Christmas dinner, all through December 2024. End the year in style with a dinner party at our beautiful Indian restaurant in Birmingham.
This indulgent festive dining experience is perfect for celebrating and bringing some cheer to the cold and gloomy Brummie winter. We also have a full cocktail menu, including mocktails.
You can also book private dining in the Tiffin Suite for an exclusive Christmas meal. Enjoy a personal, private service with a dedicated bar.
A Sharing Platter of Luxurious Dishes
All are welcome to enjoy a delicious festive meal from our set menu. We’re serving all starter and main course dishes in sharing platters to create an indulgent dining experience for your Christmas get-together.
Starters
Chilli Paneer
Our Indo-Chinese fusion starter includes paneer marinaded with Chinese spices and wok-fried with onions, peppers, chillis and garlic.
Cod Amritsari
Enjoy the crispy, spiced batter on our Atlantic Cod, served with a hot tomato and chilli relish.
Tandoori Chicken Tikka
A classic – boneless chicken pieces cooked on skewers over our traditional tandoor, served with a chopped mint salad.
Papdi Chaat
A firm favourite among our customers: enjoy a mix of textures with our delicate, crisp pastry filled with a spiced mix of chickpeas and potatoes.
Mains
Methi Aloo Gobi
A simple, Vegan-Friendly dish that feeds the soul, methi aloo gobi includes baby potatoes and cauliflower florets in light fenugreek marination. Fenugreek or methi offers a fragrant flavour that lifts any dish.
Rogan Josh
Enjoy tender spring lamb slow-cooked in a red-hot onion & tomato gravy. Our rogan josh is spiced with an aromatic garam masala & garnished with freshly chopped coriander. The lamb in this authentic Kashmiri dish is tender enough to melt in your mouth.
Makhani Murgh
Also known as Butter Chicken, makhani murgh is a mild chicken curry. We cook our chicken tikka (boneless pieces) over a charcoal tandoor to get a smoky flavour and smother it with a smoked tomato sauce with generous helpings of cream & yoghurt.
Makhani Dahl
We make this dahl with black lentils in a tangy, buttery Dhaba-style sauce with ginger, tomatoes & added green chillies for that extra kick.
Sides
Mixed Naans
Our selection of tandoor-cooked naans: garlic, coriander & butter.
Basmati rice
Fragrant tri-coloured basmati rice cooked with whole spices and seasonal vegetables
Thick Greek yoghurt mixed with pearly pomegranate seeds
Herb & Olive Salad doused with olive oil.
Dessert
We’ve chosen to offer one special dessert for our Christmas Menu, to avoid extended waiting periods for our guests. You can book for two or three courses and pay accordingly.
Stay for dessert to enjoy our signature Gulab Jamun.
This traditional sugary syrupy dumpling is common at festive occasions, served with creamy Almond Kulfi, chopped pistachios and cashew nuts.
