The gourmet maestro pulling the strings behind this gastronomic spectacle in Assagao is none other than the dynamo from Netflix's The Final Table, Chef Amninder Sandhu!
Now, let’s talk about the mastermind behind the magic—Chef Sandhu, a culinary pro who works wonders with flames. We were practically drooling as we scanned the small plates menu.
My first choice was the Gunpowder Paneer, a paneer-stuffed Manipuri black rice dosa. It was decent and is a unique fusion which could be an acquired taste. Next up was the Kela Kakori Kebab with Salbatta Chutney. Mind you, that this is a fiery dish but is a delicacy you can try. Our meal for two ended up costing nearly INR 5,000.
On the drinks front, I enjoy spicy cocktails, so I tried the tequila infused with jalapeño. It was a balanced fusion. My friend, on the other hand, ordered the mutton kakori kebab and loved it. He said it was so well-cooked that even a non-vegetarian would be tempted to convert! As for the drink, he had Rosa, which seemed to be a refreshing cocktail.
We ordered for the main dish which was a lasooni palak along with bread. It was alright and could be better. However, the service here is quick and can be visited for an evening of conversations.
