About Thali
A thali is a full meal served on one large plate: small bowls of curries, dal, vegetables, yogurt, pickle and a sweet, with rice and bread. Refills are often unlimited.
Regional versions
Gujarati and Rajasthani thalis are vegetarian and include many small dishes, some sweet. South Indian thalis come on a banana leaf with sambar, rasam and poriyal. Punjabi thalis are richer.

How this list is made
We started from public records, OpenStreetMap and Overture Maps, searched town by town for places those records miss, and read each restaurant's menu from its website or online ordering page. Places whose opening hours we could not confirm recently say so, and we check them again every month. Dishes marked "on the menu" come from the restaurant's own website or ordering page. "Usually served" is our best guess from the style of the place, so call ahead if you have your heart set on it.
