Berry Malai
An adaptation of berries and cream. Malai is Hindi word for cream or reduced milk. Not sure why it ' s called malai when the description says its baked yoghuty it should be ' Dahi '. The dish is light and well-balanced sweetness. Dark berries are fine in winter but strawberries not great pick for winter menu.

Bebinca
Its good to see Indian restaurants focusing on Indian desserts than making con-fuision cuisine desserts like chocolate samosa, cheese cakes and so on. In India we have a great collection of desserts by chefs talent it can be bought fine dining scenes. BEBINCA is a classic goan sweet which has 7 layers. made with flour, egg yolk, sugar and Nutmeg. each layer is baked or ideally gratinated one by one on Top. Here the desert is nice bit on sweeter side than normal but very light than traditionally firm versions.
