Sydney’s first tandoori-made chai is creamy, fragrant and frothy as it’s poured into fire-roasted clay pots, which give it an earthier, smoky quality. The cardamom spiced tea is served in a streetside courtyard cafe in the heart of Harris Park. Get the full Indian breakfast experience by ordering it with ghee karam idly: light semolina cakes dusted with a chilli-cumin mix, perfect for dunking in coconut chutney and a tamarind sambar.

Best for: Tandoori chai and Indian-Chinese fusion feasting, late into the night.
