Chef Gopi Thokra, Hakkasan Mumbai’s head chef said: “Hakkasan’s elaborate menu is a modern interpretation of authentic Cantonese cuisine, using the finest ingredients and expert techniques to create timeless yet innovative signature dishes. The beauty and brilliance behind the Hakkasan cuisine is that each visit brings with it new flavours and a different type of experience. Most dishes are designed for sharing, so guests can try a variety of offerings. Some of the favourites are; the Crispy duck salad, Hakka hand-pulled noodle, Wok-fried New Zealand lamb chops and the Grilled Chilean seabass with Chinese honey. Hakkasan Mumbai combines high-end design, modern techniques, Chinese influences and Michelin-starred cuisine to create a unique, unforgettable experience.”
