Shampan Indian is a Tiffin Cup nominee, and this Cowbridge Indian restaurant’s stellar reputation rests firmly on the high quality cuisine on offer. All the Indian classics are represented, plus a few less-travelled house specials and a considered selection of Malaysian dishes for a cross-ocean spice experience that makes this Eastgate spot stand out from the crowd. Out of Shampan’s popular balti options, we recommend the Lahore-style balti, with a mix of chicken, lamb, prawn, mushrooms and spinach cooked in the chef’s special blend of spices.

At Shampan you can head to the very tip of the Indian subcontinent with a number of traditional Ceylon-style dishes, dip into the tropical cuisine of Goa with sea bass cooked in coconut, or head north to Kashmir and the home of the tandoor.
