Tandoor is cylindrical clay oven native to India. This oven is of ancient origin and can be retraced back several thousand years. The Tandoor comes in a variety of sizes.

The Tandoor is fully buried in sand for insulation. Charcoal is used in the Tandoor. A temperature of 800º (degrees) is maintained inside the Tandoor.

Every Indian bread served here is baked in the upper section of the Tandoor. This is done skillfully by slapping the dough against the oven's instantly hot, curved walls. The meats are pre-treated with yogurt and a special blend of spices for a period of 24 hours. Then they are cooked in their own juices over a bed of hot charcoal inside the oven.
