TABAK MAAZ
One of Kashmir’s most iconic dishes from the legendary Wazwan feasts of the valley.
Slow-cooked lamb ribs, crisped over fire, paired with doon chutney, roasted capsicum, Kashmiri chilli coulis, pickled onions and mint.
Rich, smoky, sharp, spicy and built to be eaten with your hands.
The GOAT way.

Our GOAT Champaran has been recognised again at the Iconic Auckland Eats 2026.
A massive thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate us, vote for us, visit us, bring friends in, and keep backing what we do at GOAT.
This dish means a lot to us. Inspired by the slow-cooked clay pot curries of Bihar’s Champaran region, it’s bold, rustic, messy, rich, and a true connection to rural India, exactly the kind of regional Indian food we opened GOAT to showcase.
To see Auckland continue to embrace these lesser-known flavours of India honestly means the world.
From India, with love.
Sid & Team GOAT ❤️

NEW REVIEW- Big moment for us at GOAT.
Grateful to be featured in Cuisine Magazine and humbled by such a solid review. Built from scratch, backed by instinct, and shaped by a few risks along the way and seeing it recognised like this means a lot.
A big thank you to Kelli Brett for the opportunity and platform.
Special mention to Kerry Tyack for understanding and appreciating what we do at GOAT, that means everything.
GOAT has always been about showcasing a side of Indian food people don’t often see regional, honest, full of character. Glad that’s come through.
Grab the latest issue of Cuisine Magazine and dive into the full story.
From India, with love.

Delhi summers were intense.
But my favourite part of the season? Kulfi Falooda.
That chilled glass layered with silky falooda, rich rabri and the kesar flavour of kulfi… it was always my go-to.
Even after a proper gym session, I’d still land up with one in hand. No guilt, more calories and just pure joy. 😂
Today, recreating that same summer nostalgia at GOAT feels special.
Some memories never melt.

NOT SO OLD FASHIONED, because ordinary was never the plan.
Indri Camikara Rum, jaggery richness, smoky tandoori dates, dark chocolate depth and a lift of cardamom bitters.
Smooth, decadent, dangerously easy
