India’s identity is a distinctive one today; it seems to be the place where the choice in Indian restaurants is amazing and overwhelming! I love the energy and vivacity of our country. It is extremely cosmopolitan. The best Indian restaurants can be placed on your bucket list, where some of your sincerest memories can be made. These places are all about good food and times and are leading an international resurgence of the cuisine. I talk here about the ‘Must Try’ ones ….and yes - this list is in no particular order.

INDIAN ACCENT Chef Manish Mehrotra isn’t new to excellence and his effort in each dish is evident with only the choicest of ingredients used. Each dish extracts the actual flavour of all its natural components. Indian Accent focuses on imaginative Indian cuisine with a touch of gastronomic ethnicities. The dishes are modern-day, spirited, yet retain genuineness, repeatedly tapping into forgotten flavours from across the country. A refined experience and a festival for the taste buds which are guaranteed to please the most demanding of palates. Nothing is ordinary here and the experience lingers long after one has left! The restaurant has become a global brand with outposts in London and New York, and is a regular on the World’s 50 Best and Asia’s 50 Best lists.
