For those who love heat — our Chicken Chettinad is a fiery, aromatic South Indian curry built on freshly roasted peppercorns, red chillies and curry leaves. Bold, peppery and unforgettable, it is Calgary's go-to for a properly spicy curry.
Chettinad cuisine is famous for its intense, layered spice, and our version honours that tradition. At Flames & Grills By Tuli's we dry-roast peppercorns, fennel, red chillies and coconut, grind them fresh, and simmer them with chicken for a curry that is dark, thick and packed with flavour.
This is the dish to order when you want serious heat and depth. It brings a taste of the south to our grill-and-curry menu and is a favourite among Calgary spice lovers looking for something beyond the usual.
The roasted-spice base is what sets Chettinad apart, and we make ours from scratch for every batch. If you want the most flavour-forward, fiery curry in Calgary NW, this is it — tell us your preferred spice level.
