• Indian • Carlton

Modern Indian restaurant Where the name itself encapsulates the essence of storytelling in Hindi. with our unconventional approach, we handpick select regions and their dishes, each representing a unique chapter in India's culinary narrative. authenticity takes center stage here & we take great pride in presenting you with genuine flavors and traditional recipes.Kahaani is the sort of venue where you could order butter chicken, but you probably shouldn't order butter chicken. No one's going to raise any eyebrows if you do, but you'd be missing out on some of the treasures that lie deeper into the menu.Kahaani itself is classic Lygon: a long, narrow dining hall, with funky industrial lighting and exposed brick down one side. The front window opens out onto the street, letting the breeze and Lygon nightlife waft in.

    The steak specials were magnificent however we found the the kingfish was overly sour and steak tartare had vinegar overpower it completely which was a bit disappointing. Overall, I would come again for the steaks.

    A true Melbourne hospitality venue, Park Street Pasta goes above and beyond with their attention to detail, level of service and fantastic hand made pasta along with a menu filled with dishes from the homeland. With so much Italian on offer in Melbourne it is refreshing to find a venue that is able keep the menu and experience engaging whilst authentic. Stand out dishes for me would be the Kingfish, Tartare, King Prawn Pasta, Pistachio Brûlée and a dish of roast peppers and anchovy cream. Thanks team for a wonderful experience.
