New Haven's Thali Too Launches New Menu, Celebrating Global Vegetarian Cuisine
Thali Too has revamped its menu to include global offerings beyond Indian cuisine.
New Haven, Conn. – Chef Prasad Chirnomula’s vegetarian restaurant, Thali Too, located in the heart of the Yale Campus in Downtown New Haven, has launched a new menu expanding its offerings beyond Indian cuisine. Traditional Asian, Greek and Tuscan salads and sandwiches, as well as home made gourmet soups, have been added to the menu. Additionally, the restaurant has also launched a to-go coffee bar as well as “grab-and-go” lunch box selections.
“We listened to the community and decided to retool the menu to offer a wider range of menu items,” said Chirnomula. “In addition to the tried-and-true Indian favorites our guests have come to love, we’ve also added more traditional street food from Southern India, such as Samosas, Chana Tacos, Masala Omelets and Ragda Patties, all served Café style. From other areas of the world, I’m excited to feature ‘Naanizza’ flat breads with various toppings, pressed garlic naan sandwiches, wraps, soups, salads and gourmet sandwiches. My goal is to create an inviting, Café like-setting where the community not only comes in to dine with friends and take advantage of our complimentary Wi-Fi, but also takes advantage of our quick serve Coffee and Lassi bar and new ”grab-and-go” box lunches.”
The menu features traditional Indian favorites including saag paneer, egg curry, poori bhaji, paratha and dosas. New additions include salads (Asian salad, Greek goddess salad, Tuscan salad and crisp okra salad), soups (tomato and tofu, French onion and New England clam chowder), flat bread Naanizzas made on a special Naan-based crust (Margarita, New Haven with mashed potato, vegetarian bacon and truffle oil, Tuscan and Tikka Masala Cheese), pressed sandwiches on garlic Naan bread (roasted eggplant, Caprese and roasted portabella mushroom), sandwiches (Croque Monsieur, Croque Madam, vegetarian burger, Falafel and Caprese) and Kathi Roti Wraps (veggies, paneer and veggie kebabs).

“To coincide with the new menu, we also designed a new logo showcasing our new emphasis on global vegetarian cuisine,” added Chirnomula. “With a full bar and a beautiful outdoor patio located in a courtyard behind the Apple store on the Yale Campus, we aim to offer the finest selection in vegetarian, vegan & gluten-free cuisine. Now, there is truly something for everybody at the Thali Too Café.”
The restaurant is also continuing to offer its famous all-you-can-eat Tiffin and Lassi brunch every Saturday and Sunday from noon until 3:00pm. The meal is served in the traditional British “tiffin” style, serving small portions in a non-sequential order.
