4. Atrangi’s new menu is a culinary time capsule

Crafted under the vision of Chef Ritu Dalmia, Menu III celebrates the kind of Indian cooking that isn’t just about innovation, it’s about memory, simplicity, and community. Some dishes have been lovingly adapted from handwritten manuscripts and history, while others are beloved classics from Chef Dalmia’s catering menus in India. Menu III kicks off with playful small plates like the reimagined Dahi Bhalla Lake Ka Dum Aloo, a contrast of warm and cool textures, and Malwani Chicken Tikka, inspired by the coastal kitchens of Konkan.

The Wagyu Palak Khichda, a rich mix of lentils, rice, and wagyu beef, turns a humble famine dish into a showstopper. Mains journey across India, from the crisp Matar Belma Puri of Uttar Pradesh to Singla Bara from Chhattisgarh, and the fiery Saoji Mutton Bread Poha from the spice-loving Halba Koshti community. The Naga Pickle Beef Rib is a nod to Nagaland’s age-old traditions of preservation, with bold, smoky flavours.

Where? Atrangi, Jumeirah al Qasr

When? Monday to Sunday | Lunch: 12 pm to 3 pm | Dinner: 7 pm to 11:30 pm
