Flyover Fritterie turns up the volume on Indian street food
Flyover Fritterie is a vegetarian Indian eatery on Regent Street in Redfern, serving the big, bold flavours of the street food stands that sit under India’s flyovers. It started life as a tiny takeaway window in the CBD and has grown into a two level space with a lively kitchen and bar downstairs and a calmer dining room upstairs.
The details are what keep us coming back. The black daal is slow cooked for 48 hours until it turns silky, the chutneys are ground fresh each day, and the cocktails are spiked with fresh ginger and chai. It works just as well for a quick after work drink at the bar as it does for a long, shared dinner upstairs, and the upstairs room is fully accessible. It feels relaxed and generous, with food that has a real point of view.
Quick Bites
EAT: The slow cooked black daal, with a side of the mint and tamarind chutneys.
DRINK: One of the ginger and chai cocktails. Ask the bar what’s pouring.
PLAY: Grab a seat downstairs for a front row view of the kitchen and bar after work, or book the upstairs dining room when you want a proper group dinner.
VIBE CHECK: Buzzy, warm, unfussy
