People start drooling at the thought of delicious Dal baati churma , Gutte ki subzi and lahsuni chutney.

Housed in the plush locales of Hotel Sheraton Creek, Ashiana is one stop for lip-smacking North Indian cuisine served with great hospitality. Though the restaurant caters to Indo- Arab fusion food as well, but it is the North Indian cuisine that steals the limelight in this fine dining restaurant.                                         The authentic interiors add the right flavor to the delectable Indian food. Copper vessels, murals, antique chandeliers and even jharokha - styled panels, as if transport diners to the times of maharajas.
