The India booth serves up some bold Indian cuisine, with options in 2022 including samosas and chicken tikka masala.
You can hit up this marketplace as you travel from the China pavilion to the Germany pavilion or vice versa.
Similar to last year, this one booth serves some good-sized portions. They’re great for sharing!

If you’re not a fan of bold flavors or heat, you may want to steer clear of the India marketplace.
But, if you are a fan or are looking to expand your palate, this is a good booth to try. Plus, there’s a plant-based option, a good kid-friendly menu item, and a non-alcoholic beverage.
Here’s everything you need to know about the India booth, including reviews, photos, and our must-trys.

Crispy Paneer
Crispy paneer served with mango-curry ketchup.

Our Thoughts
Shannon: Crispy, love the mango curry ketchup, but kinda flavorless overall.
Heather: It’s like a mozzarella stick but a different texture. I bet kids would like it, but skip the ketchup if worried about being too spicy.
Felicia: This has a good flavor but the paneer has a weird spongy texture. Big portion though.
Allyson: I really wanted to like this especially since it’s fried cheese, but it was ok. I really liked the Mango-Curry Ketchup (didn’t find this spicy), though. A good option for kids.
Potato and Pea Samosa
Potato and pea samosa with coriander-lime cream.

Our Thoughts
Shannon: Love the size, textures, and flavor. Great portion. Love the coriander-lime cream.
Heather: Crispy shell and very flavorful filling. My only dislike is the heat level; it’s too spicy for me but if you like spicy Indian food, you’ll like it.
Felicia: I didn’t expect to like this but it is very good. The filling is bursting with flavor. The breading is cooked perfectly and the sauce on top adds a fresh touch. Loved.
Allyson: A good vegetarian option and very good portion size, but be prepared for spice! A little too spicy, for my taste.
Chicken Tikka Masala
Chicken Tikka Masala with a fennel-spiced yogurt and naan bread.

Our Thoughts
Shannon: Great portion, flavors, and just the right kick
Heather: Fantastic flavor. Spicy but like a level 1-2, so not too bad. Very flavorful!
Felicia: This is a huge portion and is delicious. Nice spice to it, the flavor is great and the naan bread makes it even heartier. Delicious.
Mango Lassi
The Mango Lassi is a fruity and creamy Indian beverage.
Note: Also available with alcohol.

Our Thoughts
Shannon: Nice mango flavor and decent portion.
Heather: I think this has a great flavor and really cuts the heat of the samosa. I just like the one WITH the alcohol better.
Felicia: This one tastes like melted ice cream. Don’t like.
Allyson: I didn’t like the alcoholic version and I didn’t like this either. I don’t want all this milk and cream on a hot day.
Taj Mahal Premium Lager
The Taj Mahal Premium Lager is made by United Breweries in Bangalore, India.

Our Thoughts
Shannon: Light but missing much flavor.
Heather: I thought this was really good – very easy to drink and has a nice flavor.
Felicia: Very easy to drink beer. Great for the heat.
Allyson: A very tasty beer that’s easy to drink.
Sula Brut Tropicale Sparkling Wine
Sula Brut Tropicale Sparkling Wine from Nashik, India.

Our Thoughts
Shannon: Wanted to like this in its cute cup, but it’s overall very dry and bland.
Heather: Extremely light, which may not be great if you like a full-flavored taste, but when it is 100 degrees out, it’s really great.
Felicia: Very sweet for a brut. Not a big fan.
Allyson: Definitely on the sweeter side, but has good flavors.
Sula Chenin Blanc
The Sula Chenin Blanc is from Nashik, India.

Our Thoughts
Shannon: Light, small portion, kinda bland
Heather: Just ok. Nothing fancy or special.
Felicia: Fine but a little sweet.
Allyson: I actually liked this for a white wine and it was much better than many others I tried at the festival.
Mango Lassi with Sōmrus Chai Cream Liqueur
The Mango Lassi with Sōmrus Chai Cream Liqueur is a fruity, creamy Indian drink that is served with a rum-based liqueur.
Note: Also available without alcohol.

Our Thoughts
Shannon: Slightly better than the non-alcoholic version of this drink because the cream liqueur adds some much-needed flavor.
Heather: Tasty, a bit sweet, but perfect for cutting down the fire in your mouth after trying the samosa dish!
Felicia: Milky, thick, and sweet. Very quickly tastes like melted ice cream.
Allyson: This just isn’t my thing. Too milky and creamy.
