Looking for indiaas eten den haag that works for two vegans? Indian Curry Club on Thomsonlaan publishes a separate vegan menu, which makes the planning much simpler. You can read every dish before you book.
This guide turns that page into a dinner for two. All dish details come from the restaurant’s own menu pages, and where the pages say nothing, the guide says so.
What a vegan dinner for two looks like on this menu
The vegan menu is short, so it helps to count what is on it. There are three snacks, Samosa, Onion Bhajiya and Pani Puri, and four mains, Channa Masala, Mix Veg, Aloo Gobhi Adraki and Bhindi Do Pyaza.
That is enough for a full evening without repeating a dish. Two people can share one or two snacks, then take two mains and compare them.
Dietary details on the vegan page are limited to what each description lists, so treat it as a starting point and confirm with the restaurant.
Sample dinner one: the light order
This is the order for an evening when you want something small. Start with the Samosa, which comes as two pieces, so each of you gets one. The filling is boiled potatoes, peas, raisins and spices inside a crisp triangular case.
Add the Pani Puri, filled with potato, chickpeas and tamarind and served with tangy mint water. Then share one main, Channa Masala, a chickpea curry cooked with cumin and dry ginger and finished with fresh coriander.
It is a modest order, so add a second main if either of you is hungry.
Sample dinner two: the hearty order
For a bigger appetite, build the evening in three steps. Anyone searching for a vegan indian restaurant in Den Haag can read each of these dishes on the vegan menu page first. Take Onion Bhajiya as the starter, a crispy onion fritter served with mint tamarind sauce, and share it between you.
Then order two mains that look different on the plate. Channa Masala gives you a chickpea curry, and Aloo Gobhi Adraki gives you potato and cauliflower cooked with onion, tomato and garam masala and finished with fresh ginger.
If the table still has room, add Bhindi Do Pyaza as a third dish. It is fresh okra with onion and fresh tomato, listed as medium hot.
Sample dinner three: snacks only
A snacks only evening is possible too, because all three vegan snacks are on the menu. Order the Samosa, the Onion Bhajiya and the Pani Puri and share them.
The three differ in texture. The samosa is a crisp pastry case around a soft filling, the bhajiya is a crispy fritter, and the pani puri is served with tangy mint water.
The menu gives no portion sizes beyond the two pieces in the Samosa, so ask the restaurant whether three snacks is enough for two.
How to balance two mains by texture
Two mains can look alike on the table, so choose by texture. Mix Veg is described as a semi dry curry made with vegetables, bellpeppers, pounded coriander seeds and red chillies. Pair it with Channa Masala and you get a saucier plate and a drier one.
Aloo Gobhi Adraki sits between the two, with potato and cauliflower cooked with onion, tomato and garam masala. Bhindi Do Pyaza is the one the menu marks as medium hot.
If one of you likes more heat than the other, the red chillies in the Mix Veg and the medium hot okra are the places to start. The other descriptions mention no chilli, but it is sensible to ask about spice level when you order.
What the vegan page does not cover
The vegan menu lists snacks and mains only. It has no rice, bread or dessert, so those sit on the full menu.
Several naan descriptions on the full menu mention butter or cheese, and the menu does not say which breads, rice or desserts suit a vegan diet. Ask the restaurant before adding them to your order.
The full menu page also says gluten free dishes are available, but it does not label them one by one. If gluten matters to either of you, add that to your question.
Booking for two
Indian Curry Club is at Thomsonlaan 69, 2565 HX Den Haag, and opens Monday to Sunday from 5pm to 10pm. That makes it an evening plan.
The menu page asks guests to mention allergies or dietary needs when they reserve. You can do that through the restaurant’s website, or call or WhatsApp +31 (0)6 49529823.
One message to send before you go
If you would rather ask first, a short note does the job: two of us eat vegan, we plan to order from the vegan menu, and we would like to know which rice, bread and dessert suit a vegan diet. Add any allergy or gluten question at the end.
That one message covers the gaps on the page and lets the restaurant answer before you arrive.
