Located on the sixth floor of Celica Park, the new Bombastic Supper Club by Ambuja Neotia has a modern Japanese take in terms of decor and ambience. The sprawling 7,000 sq ft space is divided into booths, private sections, a smoking zone and a private room. Above, one of the most striking decor elements is the red origami trail across the ceiling that represents a traditional dragon puppet used in dances

The bar is done up with tiny blue tiles, resembling the colour scheme of Vincent Van Gogh’s ‘The Starry Night’

Another bar, which is centrally located, is designed for easy access from both the main seating area and the smoking zone, which has its own seating area

While every corner of the 190-seater venue pops with elaborate antiques and vibrant colours, this unicorn sure takes the cake! Not only is it decked out in different colours, but it’s also got a motif of Michelangelo’s ‘The Creation of Man’

Bombastic brings Kolkata Yoshoku cuisine, a culinary style that melds Western flavours with Japanese sensibilities. The fusion menu goes from Bar Nibbles to Small Plates to Large Plates and Dessert. Recommended: Seoul Fries, Burrata, (in picture) Black Bean Chicken Dim Sum, Crispy Black Rice Salad, 8-Hour Braised Lamb and Pork Belly Adobo

Sip on a Bombastic Tea Party (gin + lemon + maple syrup + candy floss tea) garnished with a candy floss cloud, guaranteed to take you on a wild ride through Wonderland! Also recommended: Bombastic Smoke (Jameson Irish whisky + maple syrup + coffee bitters), smoked with cherry wood and served on an ice block

‘At Bombastic, we have incorporated elements that are bold, but also classy, a reflection of the name. We are a high-energy supper dining place; we are not a restaurant, fine dining, or club,’ said Aditya Agarwal, general manager. As the revamped AltAir from the Ambuja stable gains traction in Sector V, one can fairly anticipate Bombastic’s rise to similar success
