Book NowAbout Foodie Indiya
Nerang locals bypass sugary takeaway batches and head to Tibbing Street for Indian cooking tailored to individual spice tolerances. Operating for over a decade, the kitchen tunes every pan to order—whether you want an extra-hot vindaloo or mild butter chicken. Tables regularly pair blistered garlic naan with the signature prawn Malabari, while the chef steps out from the stoves to check on guests. Bring your own wine and take a seat in the curtained dining alcoves.
- Customized Heat Levels: The kitchen prepares curries to your requested heat level, avoiding the overly sweet sauces typical of standard takeaway.
- Signature Seafood & Curries: The signature prawn Malabari is a frequent customer favorite alongside staples like palak paneer and Dal tadka.
- Attentive Table Care: Hosts warmly greet guests, the chef checks tables personally, and surprise cups of off-menu chai frequently appear.
- BYO & Curtained Corners: Seating includes curtained nooks for small groups, paired with a welcoming BYO policy for diners.
