Ojas rasa menu is designed keeping in mind the Ayurvedic sixfold classification of taste – sweet, sour, saline, pungent, astringent & bitter.

Ayurveda emphasises having a sattvic diet as it can help one lead a healthful life. A sattvic diet is one which promotes purity of both mind and body – it is a way of life, and more than vegetarianism.
Our food is abundant in prana (life-force), vegetarian, wholesome, fresh and easy to digest. It is not processed, free of preservatives and rajasic & tamasic ingredients like onion, garlic, mushroom & raw potato. The food is optionally topped using Ayurvedic sourced ghee, which is one of the purist sattvic foods according to Ayurveda.
DINNER MENU
including OJAS THALI
(6pm-9pm Wednesday – Sunday )
Traditional Ayurvedic thalis (platters) are about creating nutritionally balanced meals, using all the six tastes or rasas. The composition of any thali is determined by our biological composition (doshas).
These thalis based upon the three vital dosha’s (vata, pitta, kapha) using seasonal organic produce, and hence the menu varies. All the items are freshly cooked daily.
saatvik ( pure) dinner plate including housemade lentils, vegetables, grains & dessert – comes with herbal brew tea good for digestion (refill pls ask staff) Ghee ( optional )All thali’s are made from fresh ingredients daily, and are available from 6-9pm Wednesday – Sunday (available until sold out).

BEVERAGES
MOON MILK
Cows milk is considered valuable in Ayurveda (one of the oldest holistic healing systems). It is described as nutritional food with an anti-ageing aid. In Ayurveda, the body can process warm milk better than cold, before consumption the milk should be boiled with spices several times, to make it even more digestible for our body.
Moon milk, with it’s roots in Ayurveda, uses this method of preparation of milk for a calming effect on our body and to boost the bodily immunity.
Moon Milk is made in four steps:
Base milk. At Ojas we prefer to use ahimsa (cruelty-free) cows milk, and oat (or almond) milk for plant-based Moon Milks as oats are useful to manage the symptoms of anxiety which is due to vata imbalance.
Spices. Home-made spice mix.
Adaptogens. At Ojas we use Ashwaganda, Moringa, and Tulasi powder. Adaptogens are natural herbal substances used to help the body adapt to stress.
Tastes. The Moon Milks are crafted keeping the body types in mind.
