At Bolina Sweets, the rich tastes of north and south India will transport your taste buds to exotic lands. Bolina Sweet’s rich regional diversity showcases the best of India, while ingredients like garlic, ginger and cumin will appeal to the diners who aren’t quite ready for the full chilli experience of a spicy vindaloo.
“Guests frequently tell us they are surprised with how many dishes are on the menu,” says owner Sukhwinder Bolina.
“Every time they come back, they say they will try something new, but it is so hard to sway from those classic favourites.”
Sukhwinder suggests trying one of Bolina’s famous sweet treats, which are sure to tempt and delight. Indian desserts are traditionally rich, sweet and aromatic – flavoured with cardamom, saffron or refreshing rosewater. Take the customer favourite besan laddu – the popular treat is sweet melt-in-your-mouth goodness, perfect to share alongside the cutely named pink chum chum, which are finger-sized rosewater dumplings.
For a genuine taste of India here in Christchurch, visit Bolina Sweets. Eat in at either 811 Colombo Street or 46 Falcon Road, Rolleston, or order online at the website.
