For Masala Festival’s 10th anniversary, we proudly celebrate a decade of partnership with Dabbawal, Newcastle’s original Indian street food pioneers. Each year, Dabbawal brings the spirit of South Asian street food culture to the festival, and this milestone menu is inspired by the region’s rich culinary heritage — from Sri Lanka’s spice bazaars to Kerala’s coastal kitchens and Lahore’s sizzling grills.

Enjoy a vibrant, specially crafted festival menu served with Dabbawal’s signature warmth and creativity.
