LBB has always admired people with multiple areas of expertise — those who pursue their passions to create something truly special for everyone to experience. One such name in the industry is Yash Advani. Beyond being a third-generation hospitality entrepreneur at The Shalimar Hotel, he’s also the founder of Maikada, a cocktail-forward bar redefining conviviality and contemporary hospitality, and Café Calma, a European-inspired dining space celebrating ingredient-driven cuisine, warmth, and meaningful connections.

And of course, when we get the chance to know the favourites of someone with multiple interests and acing 'em all — how could we not? Check out Yash Advani’s top picks across categories!
