Swadesh - Bowdon

Swadesh Bowdon’s menu is as rich and exploratory as its siblings restaurants’ menus are. The chefs at this semi-rural Trafford Indian restaurant have been recruited from top-flight establishments from around the world, and have happily created a list of Indian and South Asian delicacies that showcase the depth and complexity of these regions’ vast cuisines. You can’t go wrong when you take a table at Swadesh’s Richmond Road premises with a mixed platter to start, shared between two. The Tandoori Khazana features Hyderabadi seekh kebab, lamb puht, mahi salmon, makhmali tikka with mint chutney, while the vegetarian option is just as opulent and carefully curated: paneer achari tikka, tandoori khuley, subz pakora, and tandoori gobi.

Continuing your journey of discovery through this treasure trove of Indian cuisine, we heartily recommend checking out the chef’s recommendations, many of which are unique to Swadesh Bowdon’s Richmond Road restaurant. In particular, the chef’s special curry is proving a hit with curry connoisseurs from nearby Altrincham and further out in Trafford and Greater Manchester. This offering changes every, but is invariably exquisite. More regular dishes from this masterful cook include the grilled tandoori murg amritsari, with baby chicken marinated in a mild yoghurt, authentic Indian paneer cheese and cream sauce, with green cardamom, mace, coriander, the whole cooked in the clay oven.
