Veg Starters at Jay Bhavani Williams Landing – A Burst of Flavour in Every Bite

Crunchy, sizzling, and flavour-packed — our Veg Starters menu is where the party truly begins at Jay Bhavani Williams Landing. Whether you’re catching up with friends, enjoying pre-dinner snacks, or simply treating yourself, these vegetarian starters hit all the right notes. From smoky kababs to melt-in-your-mouth momos, every dish is made fresh, served hot, and designed to kick off your meal with bold, memorable flavours.

We believe starters shouldn’t be an afterthought. That’s why our Veg Starters are carefully crafted to deliver perfect texture, aroma, and taste — all without meat, all full of character. Each dish reflects the rich diversity of Indian street flavours while offering a touch of modern freshness that every indian vegetarian food lover will appreciate.

Why Our Veg Starters Stand Out

Every dish begins with high-quality ingredients — fresh vegetables, premium paneer, aromatic herbs and authentic Indian spices. From the gentle smokiness of grilled kababs to the crunch of Schezwan fries, everything is prepared to order. The result? Starters that excite your taste buds and set the stage for your meal.

Popular Veg Starters You’ll Love
➣ Hara Bara Kabab
A beloved Indian classic. These green kababs are made with mashed spinach, green peas, potatoes, and aromatic herbs, shaped into patties and grilled till golden brown. Served with tangy mint chutney, they’re hearty, wholesome and bursting with flavour.

➣ Cheese Masala Papad
A crispy, cheesy delight that’s perfect for sharing. Thin papads are topped with grated cheese, diced onions, tomatoes, and a sprinkle of chaat masala — crunchy, zesty and oh-so-addictive.

➣ Onion Salad
Fresh and simple yet incredibly refreshing. Our Onion Salad combines crisp onions, cucumber, coriander, and a splash of lemon for the perfect sidekick to spicy dishes from our Roadside Specials or Traditional Dishes.

➣ Mix Veg Momo
Steamed dumplings filled with finely chopped vegetables, seasoned with ginger, garlic and Indian spices. Served with spicy red chilli chutney, they offer a perfect balance of softness and spice.

➣ Paneer Momo
For paneer lovers, this is a must-try. Juicy dumplings stuffed with soft paneer and herbs, steamed or lightly grilled, then served with tangy Schezwan sauce. A fusion of Indian and Asian street food magic.

➣ Schezwan Loaded Fries
Golden fries tossed in a fiery Schezwan sauce, topped with cheese, spring onions, and crunchy capsicum. Crispy, saucy, and seriously satisfying — ideal for sharing with friends or pairing with a cold drink.
