Eastside chic
meets stellar
Indian cuisine
at the Silver
Lake eatery
called Tantra.
Beginning at the
ornate,
hammered-metal
doors and
continuing
throughout is an
opulence that
far exceeds any
expectation.
High ceilings,
low lighting and
Indian-style
décor mixed with
high-tech video
displays create
an ambience
tinged with
mystery and
romance.
This gorgeous
setting
perfectly
compliments a
menu which is a
sophisticated
mélange of both
traditional
Indian cuisine
and contemporary
ingredients,
featuring a
broad range of
Tandoori dishes
from the north
and Masala based
dishes from the
south of India.
The spices don't
compete for
attention the
way the diners'
chic (I’m so out
there I must be
cool) outfits
do; maybe this
is why Tantra
seems to have
found the
perfect blend of
everything in
this eclectic
Los Angeles
neighborhood.
