Halimah Indian

Halimah at the lower end of Musselburgh's High Street is one of East Lothian's more thoughtful Indian and Bangladeshi restaurants, run on ayurvedic culinary principles — a kitchen philosophy that emphasises clean, health-conscious spicing rather than heavy cream-based sauces. The restaurant has won a Scottish Curry Award and has hosted Miss Scotland events. It operates BYOB, which keeps the bill manageable. Reviews on TripAdvisor highlight the quality of the food and the unusually considered approach to South Asian cooking that goes beyond standard restaurant-Indian fare. The price point sits in the moderate range. An interesting destination for Musselburgh diners looking for something beyond the town's chip-shop strip.
