Michi's Restaurant

Michi's Restaurant is a casual multi-cuisine restaurant at Akshardeep Apartment on University Road near Indira Circle in Rajkot, Gujarat, India. The menu covers Punjabi, Chinese and continental dishes, with paneer kadai as the listed specialty, backed by veg manchurian and butter naan. Paneer kadai is a North Indian preparation of cottage cheese cooked with capsicum, onion and a coarsely ground spice mix, while veg manchurian reflects the Indo-Chinese cooking that is popular across Gujarat. The restaurant has no Michelin or chef-led background; it is a neighbourhood venue in the University Road area, which draws students, residents and families, and it offers wide choice at mid-range prices, with a meal for two costing about INR 500-900 (USD 5-9). The dining room is casual, with a steady, moderate noise level and no dress code. As in the rest of Gujarat, alcohol is not served, so beverages are soft drinks, lassi, shakes, tea and water. Reservations are generally unnecessary because the restaurant takes walk-ins, but weekend evenings are busy and groups may prefer to phone +91 281 258 2912 beforehand. Lunch and dinner are served. Indira Circle is a major junction on the western side of Rajkot, along the route used by many residents, so the restaurant is convenient for visitors staying in that part of the city or travelling along the Kalavad Road corridor. Travellers wanting traditional Saurashtra food will find thali halls elsewhere, whereas this restaurant suits diners looking for familiar curries and Indo-Chinese dishes in a relaxed setting.
