The popular Indian Delights restaurant sitting in the heart of Playa Blanca celebrated its second birthday this August. We chatted with owner Ramesh.
It’s unbelievable how quickly the months fly by, and we can’t quite believe that Indian Delights are about to celebrate their second birthday. It seems like only yesterday that we spoke to Ramesh and Saraswati about their first year in business!
In its first year the restaurant was a hit with tourists and locals despite the knockbacks of the pandemic. Since opening two years ago, Ramesh, Saraswati and the team at Indian Delights have accrued a number of loyal customers.
“The current situation is a new challenge different to Covid”, Ramesh says, “the rising costs have affected every business owner on Lanzarote.” Ramesh explained that the price of even the most basic restaurant supplies have nearly doubled in some cases.
However, the Indian Delights team are facing the challenges head-on and look forward to a busy summer. “The support from our customers has been amazing and we cannot thank them enough. We often see the same faces multiple times a week!”.
“Our customers not only have their favourite dishes but also their favourite tables in the restaurants, the tables closest to the sea views are the most popular by far.” The restaurant received high praise from day one and has kept that reputation, even breaking into the Spanish market converting the locals to the delightful flavours of Indian cuisine.
The situation is starting to look up as businesses prepare for a busy summer ahead. “We’re ready and waiting!”, says Ramesh, who regularly features specials, tempting lunch menus and traditional events.
Keep your eyes peeled on their Facebook for event and menu special announcements – “Indian Delights Lanzarote”.
