Chai n Chilli
Description
Experience Indian Cuisine Where Every Bite Tells a Story
Tucked away in the spirited suburb of Clayton, Chai n Chilli is more than just a vegetarian Indian restaurant—it's a heartfelt journey through time, taste, and tradition. Founded by passionate food lovers Sonali and Kiran Joshi, this cosy Melbourne gem began as a humble catering service for those craving authentic, home-style Indian dishes. Over the years, it has blossomed into a destination where memories are relived and new ones are made—one plate at a time.
At the heart of Chai n Chilli is Chef Sonali Joshi, affectionately known as "Chef Mumbaikar," whose deep roots in Maharashtrian cuisine bring an unmatched depth and authenticity to the menu. Her cooking is not just technique—it's emotion. Passed down through generations, her recipes celebrate heritage with dishes like Puran Poli, Shrikhand, and Chirote, all crafted from scratch using fresh ingredients and traditional methods. With more than a decade in the hospitality industry, Sonali's philosophy is simple yet powerful—cook with passion, serve with love, and always let the food speak for itself.
Every meal at Chai n Chilli reflects the richness of regional Indian flavours, carefully preserved and proudly presented in a modern Melbourne setting. Whether you're reminiscing about the aroma of your grandmother's kitchen or discovering Indian cuisine for the first time, this space welcomes you with open arms and warm plates. With its kitchen open from Wednesday to Saturday and two locations—Clayton and Melbourne's bustling King Street—Chai n Chilli invites you to experience India's timeless flavours in Victoria.
