ZAY PARATHA review: our verdict
Replace the burger bread with a melwi: this is the core idea behind ZAY PARATHA, and it works. The flaky crepe crackles around the filling and genuinely changes the bite. Around it, a fast-food menu built around parathas, these flat Indian breads that gave the establishment its name, on avenue Tantan.
The dining room is clean, air-conditioned, and welcomes families without fuss; the manager rounds the tables to check everything is going well. Prices remain within reach of all budgets, making it a good option for feeding a group or ordering delivery on a lazy evening. You're not here for traditional Indian cuisine or a drawn-out dinner: it's the concept that draws you in, and service can drag when the dining room fills up.
The dish to order: a melwi burger, the reason for the establishment's existence. The trap: crunchy chicken, small portion, and overly greasy frying. The good slot: late evening, as the house closes at midnight, and at 12:30 on Fridays and Saturdays.
