Tandoori Chicken Edmonton: Choose a Tandoor Starter

Looking for tandoori chicken Edmonton diners can make part of a satisfying starter spread? BABA CHICKEN lists Tandoori Chicken alongside several chicken tandoor starters, including Reshmi Chicken Tikka, Lemon Chicken Dry, wings and the Non Veg Platter. This page compares the menu-listed formats so you can narrow down a single chicken starter, choose a platter-style option, or build a broader table with vegetarian starters, bread and rice.

Tandoor Starters at BABA CHICKEN in Edmonton

A good starter decision begins with the format you want at the table. The tandoor selection at BABA CHICKEN includes individual chicken dishes with distinct menu names, chicken wings, and a Non Veg Platter. That gives Edmonton diners a few clear paths: select Tandoori Chicken directly, choose a chicken tikka-labelled dish, pick wings, or make the platter the central starter choice.

The menu does not list ingredient details or portion descriptions for these items, so it is more useful to choose from what is clearly stated: the dish name, the chicken format and the category. Browse the full BABA CHICKEN menu when you want to see the complete starter selection alongside curries, breads, rice and vegetarian options.

Start with the kind of chicken dish you want

Tandoori Chicken is the straightforward choice for someone specifically searching for that classic menu name. Reshmi Chicken Tikka is a chicken tikka selection, while Lemon Chicken Dry is identified as a dry chicken dish. The Non Veg Platter is the menu-listed platter option for diners who would rather begin with a broader non-vegetarian starter format.

For a table sharing several dishes, start by choosing one focal chicken item instead of trying to treat every tandoor dish as interchangeable. The menu names give useful cues, particularly when one person wants Tandoori Chicken and another has a preference for tikka, wings or a platter.

Compare Tandoori Chicken, Tikka, Dry Chicken and a Platter

These four choices are all listed under Starters From Tandoor, but they answer different ordering questions. The table stays close to the menu wording rather than assuming ingredients, sauces or serving sizes that are not specified.

The most important distinction is not a claim about what any dish contains; it is the form each name indicates. Tandoori Chicken and Lemon Chicken Dry are named individual chicken starters. Reshmi Chicken Tikka signals a tikka option. The Non Veg Platter is the choice to consider when the group prefers a menu-labelled platter.

If Reshmi Chicken Tikka is the leading option, see the dedicated Chicken Tikka in Edmonton page for another direct path to that selection. Comparing names before adding extras also keeps the starter portion of the meal focused instead of making every dish compete for the same role.

Four Featured Choices for a Chicken Starter Order

These four menu items make a practical starting point for diners deciding among chicken tandoor starters. Each is listed by a different format or menu cue, allowing the table to choose the item that best matches what people actually want to eat.

The menu does not enumerate the contents of the Non Veg Platter, so it should be chosen for its stated platter format rather than an assumed list of components. For a closer look at that specific option, visit the Non Veg Platter in Edmonton page.

Other Chicken Starters and Wings to Consider

Beyond the four featured choices, the tandoor list gives Edmonton diners several additional chicken starter names. These are useful when the group has already settled on chicken but wants a different menu label from Tandoori Chicken, Reshmi Chicken Tikka or Lemon Chicken Dry.

• Chicken tikka-labelled choices: Afghani Chicken Tikka, Chicken Malai Tikka, Kali Mirch Chicken Tikka and Chicken Lasuni Tikka are each listed as separate chicken starters.
• Other named chicken choices: Chicken Belle and Tangri Chicken provide further chicken selections in the same category.
• Wing options: Baba's Tandoori Chicken Wings, Kali Mirch Chicken Wings and Chilli Garlic Hot Wings are the wing-format choices on the tandoor starter list.

Use these names as a way to narrow the menu, not as a basis for guessing what is in each dish. For example, the menu clearly distinguishes Kali Mirch Chicken Tikka from Kali Mirch Chicken Wings, even though both carry the same menu wording. Similarly, Chicken Malai Tikka and Afghani Chicken Tikka are separate items, so a group can select the named option it wants without treating them as duplicates.

When several people are choosing, one practical approach is to make Tandoori Chicken or the Non Veg Platter the anchor, then add a second starter in a genuinely different format. Wings create a wing option on the table, while a tikka-labelled dish gives diners a separately named chicken choice. That simple structure makes the starter selection easier to read when the rest of the meal includes curries or rice.

Round Out a Tandoori Starter Spread

The tandoor category can be part of a larger North Indian meal without needing to overcomplicate the table. BABA CHICKEN lists several breads, accompaniments, rice dishes and vegetarian starters that can sit alongside chicken selections. The best additions depend on whether the group wants another starter, bread, rice or a vegetarian item.

1. Choose the chicken centrepiece. Start with Tandoori Chicken, Reshmi Chicken Tikka, Lemon Chicken Dry or the Non Veg Platter.
2. Add vegetarian starters if the table needs them. Paneer Tikka and Mushroom Tikka are both marked vegetarian on the menu.
3. Select bread, rice or accompaniments as needed. Plain Naan and Garlic Naan are marked vegetarian. Jeera Rice is marked vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free, while Raita, Green Chutney Sauce and Vinegar Onion Salad are listed as accompaniments or extras.

This keeps the decision grounded in the listed menu categories. A group that wants Tandoori Chicken as its chicken starter can add Paneer Tikka for a vegetarian starter, then decide separately between bread, rice and accompaniments. Diners who prefer a platter format can make the Non Veg Platter the first decision and build the rest of the meal from there.

Vegetarian diners have a dedicated selection beyond the chicken tandoor starters, so no one needs to rely on an unlisted modification. The vegetarian flags on Paneer Tikka, Mushroom Tikka, Plain Naan, Garlic Naan and Jeera Rice make those menu choices easy to identify.
