Discover the unique flavours of special regional dishes from across the Indian subcontinent presented with a contemporary twist, showcasing Chef Ketan Dongre‘s Indian roots combined with his experience working in fine dining restaurants around the world.
“The most exciting part about making these dishes is to introduce people to a variety of regional dishes from India that they might not get a chance to try unless they travel to India. I want to not only showcase unique regional dishes, but also give them a modern and international touch in their presentations and plating.“

Gatte Ki Sabzee
Chickpea dumplings made with clarified butter, carrom seeds (aka ajwain, notable for its pronounced thyme-like flavour), cumin seeds, fennel seeds, turmeric and chili powder. They are first poached, then fried, before being simmered in a tangy sauce made with onion, chilies and tomatoes.
Both dishes are served with steamed basmati rice tempered with clarified butter & cumin seeds, as well as an Indian-style coleslaw of shredded cabbage, onion and julienne carrots in a light, creamy dressing, along with fresh and spicy green chutney and a sweet date & tamarind chutney.
Rasabali
Golden fried fritters of fresh milk curd, like an Indian ricotta, are mixed with semolina, flour, green cardamom and sugar, soaked in a sweet saffron-infused milk reduction.
