The beauty of the cuisines of India is the fact that there are never-endings. It is possible to never have the same dish twice within the span of a couple of months.
This would explain why Jhol on Sukhumvit 18 is never done with its menu and keeps adding new dishes every few months. Covering the vast Indian coastline, the restaurant serves up a plethora of coastal cuisines from the sub-continent, from the well-known to the lesser known. From the Snacks section, do order the Beguni (B290), which are aubergine fritters served with a kasundi dip (mustard) and kaffir lime podi (spiced powder). A popular dish in the eastern regions of India, this is an excellent snack during the monsoons. At Jhol, it goes well with Draupati (B180) a cocktail made with green mango, ginger, habanero, pink salt and magic masala. Looks fancy, too!
