"He'd say other people's dads earned money, but that I can't read and can't do anything," recalls his father.

There's no cutlery either: you rip at great hunks of meat and swab it up with nan the size of a trash can lid. But don't let this modish coarseness fool you: there's nothing back-to-basics about the cooking. The tandoori jhinga?four colossal marinated prawns flavored with yogurt, red chilies, turmeric and garam masala?is sensational. And the sikandari raan, a whole leg of spring lamb soaked in vinegar...
