La Porte de l'Inde sur Vannes

24/12/2025: I had a very pleasant dinner with family at this welcoming restaurant. I was surprised to find a restaurant such as this in Vannes, albeit it being the largest city in Morbihan, it is out in the boondocks. Listed as Indo/Pakistani restaurant a meaning of which I do not understand, perhaps owned by a Kashmiri, the menu is generic "indian" food not consumed by average indians or pakistanis in India. This does not mean it is not tasty. I would describe this food as Indian flavour tailored for the french palate. Most of these dishes had distant origins in Persia brought over by the people serving the Moghuls who were steeped in Persaian culture. Today i ordered Saumon Shirazi .. such a dish does not exist in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh or Iran. it is the imagination of someone as Shiraz is known for its salad and the fish in indian cooking is usually local fishes as in Goan or Kerala Cuisine. I enjoyed the sauces, generic nans, generic basmati rice and the server who seemed to be the owner or something similar. The price is very reasonable for France and it is cheaper than Miami or Washington DC. I recommend you try it , like Alladin's lamp, it might bring you a taste that you might like. The next time I am in Vannes, I will go there and hope this time they do have Bourgogne Blanc as advertised rather than giving some poorer substitute.
