Savor India’s eclectic culinary heritage India offers one of the world’s most diverse cuisines, with a multitude of regional specialties influenced by centuries of foreign invaders. Rich and full of flavor, Indian food is deliciously complex, typically made with a liberal use of spices such as ginger, coriander, cardamom, cumin, turmeric, tamarind and cinnamon. It can be subtle or spicy, savory or sweet, meat-based or vegetarian, and everything imaginable in between.
