Narratives Menu

A six-meal experience that, for us, is partly personal: our daikon fish soup, packed with vitamin C and omega-3s, was inspired by a broth that was served to us in the home of a dear friend. This menu also features a black-chickpea kala chana masala (emblematic of our Ayurvedic principles) and a tagine of free-range chicken and figs.
