The Cook's Tale
14-15 Beer Cart Lane, Canterbury, Kent, CT1 2NY
About
The Cook's Tale, on Beer Cart Lane, serves contemporary Odia cuisine built around the food of Odisha in eastern India rather than the generic curry-house menu found elsewhere in Canterbury. Its tasting menus and a la carte dishes have picked up a run of recent awards, including Kent Life's Best Fine Dining Restaurant and a regional cuisine title at the Indian Restaurant Awards. It only opens for dinner on Mondays and Thursdays, with lunch added Friday to Sunday, so check its calendar before planning a visit.
