Parap · Darwin NT
Modern Indian dining in the heart of Parap — thali specials, tandoor classics, and NT seafood kissed with Indian spice.
The menu
The chef
An award-winning chef recognised by the Hospitality NT Awards and the NT Seafood Industry Awards — and featured in delicious. magazine — Selvam has spent more than fifteen years behind the pass, honing a craft that began in South India and found its home in the Top End.
His cooking is a meeting of two worlds: NT seafood and Top End produce on one side, the spice craft of South India on the other. Barramundi meets curry leaf, mud crab meets tamarind, and every masala is ground fresh in-house, the way it should be.
Locals may know him from another kitchen entirely — his beloved cooking classes, where Territorians learned to toast their own spices and fold a proper samosa, earning him a devoted following across Darwin.
