The Mowgli Story
A tale of a different kind of Indian restaurant in Cardiff
Since 2014, Mowgli has been on a mission to show the UK that Indian food is about so much more than heavy curries. It is about the zing of fresh herbs, the tang of tamarind, and the joy of sharing street food plates across the table.
At our Indian restaurant in Cardiff, every dish is a testament to the belief that food should be healthy, and lip-smackingly good.
