Indian flavours delivered to your doorstep in Victoria

Spice Jammer specializes in East Indian food with an East African twist. It’s notably spicier than the usual Indian food you find in North America and uses mustard oil instead of the standard peanut oil. While they carry many familiar favourites, be sure to try their chicken or prawn curries, which use a special home-made spice blend that’s quite different from regular Indian. If you have dietary restrictions, you’ll be happy to know that Spice Jammer makes everything from scratch. They can easily whip up vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free alternatives that still capture the authentic East Indian taste.

Spice it up with delicious Indian food in Victoria

Spice it up with delicious Indian food in Victoria

This little gem is slightly off the beaten path but well worth it. The food is spicy, and it is jammin'. A husband-and-wife duo puts a unique spin on Indian cuisine by fusing it with South African flavours in this traditionally decorated restaurant. The result is incredibly fragrant and spicy meals that you are not likely to find elsewhere. If you don't want your food that hot, just notify your server of your desired heat level and they'll cook your food to suit.
