Some of the dishes on the menu are ‘Laam Dand Gol Pind Pakoda Platter’ which includes aloo vada, sabudana vada, paneer pakoda and cheese nads, “Buttler’s Butter Garlic Mushrooms”, and “Pat’s Cumin and Coriander Tikka” — fish tikka marinated in coriander and baked in a tandoor.

To match the stadium’s energy, SOCIAL will also have ‘dholwalas’ and face painters at its restaurants across India.
“We curate a match-watching experience like no other, bringing the stadium to one’s nearest SOCIAL outpost with decor and a limited edition menu that is fit for the occasion.
“For tomorrow’s India-Pakistan match, we have ‘dholwalas’ and face painters to keep up the enthusiasm. We are expecting a full house at our outposts,” Satyajit Dhingra, chief regional officer – North, Impresario Handmade Restaurants, which runs SOCIAL, told PTI.
