SUPPER CLUB: Savouring Surat by Malav Naik
There is a famous Gujarati proverb, Surat nu Jaman ane Kashi nu Maran. Literally translated it means "Dining in Surat and dying in Varanasi is the only way to heaven". It refers to the long-standing reputation for culinary excellence that Surat, a city of about 7 million on the Tapi River in the west Indian state of Gujarat, is known for. Centuries of trade with both the East and the West, flowing through its bustling port and fuelled by its famous textile and diamond markets, have created a vibrant, cosmopolitan food culture. Join us for an intimate dinner by proud Surti ambassador, Malav Naik, who will share his personal take on what makes the justly famous cuisine of this city so heavenly.
