Jaipur has several locations throughout Dublin and the surrounding counties. Known for its sophisticated ambiance and fine cuisine, Jaipur is an absolute favorite among the locals and visitors alike. Like all Indian restaurants, it offers a wide variety of vegetarian dishes, although its meat dishes are wonderful and well-prepared, as well. One of the stars of the Jaipur menu is the Goan seafood curry, which is a spicy blend of tiger prawn, crab claws and sea bass simmered in a Goa-style coconut milk and masala sauce. Also, the vegetarian kadhai tarkari is an often asked for dish, which features organic stir-fried seasonal vegetables with crushed tomato and freshly ground black pepper.
