A statement on the post said, “Bombastic chef Gaggan Anand (and much of his current team) held the title of Asia’s Best Restaurant for four years at the previous iteration of Gaggan, before moving across town to a smaller space in 2020.”
It further said, “Anand long ago dubbed his cuisine ‘progressive Indian’, and while many nods to his home culture — like the use of Indian spices and herbs and reinterpretations of traditional dishes, street food in particular — remain on the 20-course menu, the food also carries signals and influences from Japan, France, Thailand and beyond.”
“The plating is a riot of colours and a jumble of textures. Be prepared to experience explosions in your mouth, to eat with your hands and to attack one dish with only your tongue,” it concluded.
