A Feast in an Unlikely Place
In the quiet New England town of Troy, New Hampshire, Junayed Ahmed opened Royal Spice during the height of a pandemic — and built something that guests now travel from across the country to experience.
Royal Spice | Our Story
An Act of Faith in Troy
In 2020, Junayed Ahmed opened Royal Spice on a quiet Main Street in Troy, NH — a bold declaration that extraordinary Indian cuisine belonged here as much as anywhere.
A Culinary Tour of India
From the fierce heat of Chettinad specialties to the coastal elegance of Malabar Mussel Curry and saffron-laced Lamb Biryani — a breadth of regional Indian cooking rarely found in New England.
The Kitchen Never Compromises
Freshest ingredients, finest whole spices, techniques that honor each recipe's origins. Guests describe the Palak Paneer as "12 out of 10" and travel back for the tandoor naan.
Guests Come From Across the Country
Diners from New York, San Diego, and beyond rank Royal Spice among the finest Indian food they've tasted — a remarkable distinction for a town of just a few thousand people.
Celebrate in the Banquet Hall
Draped in jewel tones of crimson, saffron, and indigo, the banquet hall transforms every gathering — from birthday dinners to wedding feasts — into a vivid celebration.
