When Martin Mazhdrakov opened an Indian restaurant in central Sofia, 22 years ago, this was a huge leap of faith for the IT entrepreneur. Back in the day, he had zero experience in running a restaurant business, let alone one specialising in cuisine that was virtually unknown in Bulgaria. And yet, with time, perseverance, dedication and passion, he and his team turned Taj Mahal into one of the most beloved establishments in Sofia.
The name Taj Mahal is universally associated with the stunning beauty of the white mausoleum in Agra and its tragic story. In Sofia, Taj Mahal means that, and more: it is the name of one of the best places in the city for delicious Indian food. Located in a central street, Taj Mahal takes Indian food seriously. The restaurant is aware of the pitfalls when offering exotic food far from its place of origin – from the need of proper ingredients to trained cooks to finding the balance between authenticity and local palates and avoiding adapting the recipes beyond recognition.
Covered in lush greenery by the sea and in close proximity to Varna and an international airport: Ss Constantine and Helena Resort is deservedly one of the most exclusive summer holiday places in Bulgaria.
Villa Mare Restaurant & Apartments makes the resort even more pleasant - an oasis for lovers of good tastes and exquisite luxury year round.
