Savour the taste of Mumbai’s India Jones now in Kolkata

Chef Stefan Chin is set to host a modern Asian cuisine pop-up at Baan Thai restaurant of The Oberoi Grand

Inspired by the adventurous spirit of Bharat Joyent, better known as India Jones, and his love for travel and fine cuisine, India Jones restaurant at Trident, Nariman Point, Mumbai, offers authentic dishes from Vietnam, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Indonesia and Japan. Bringing this culinary adventure to Kolkata, chef Stefan Chin will host an exclusive modern Asian cuisine pop-up at The Oberoi Grand’s Baan Thai restaurant. 

Chef Chin is a senior sous chef, who plays around with flavours of Asian cuisines, recreating and reimagining delectable recipes. Chef Chin’s inspiration is driven by his family heritage — a mixture of pan-Asian chefs of Indian-Chinese origin in Kolkata. The three-day pop-up menu will include dishes like sesame poached scallops and glass noodles, Osaka-style lamb chops with pepper glaze, Malay coconut prawns with mango relish, spinach and jade soup and more. Speaking about the India Jones pop-up kitchen at Baan Thai, chef Stefan Chin said, “The creation of modern Asian cuisines with a tapestry of ingredients and textures has become an integral part of my signature. I look forward to bringing a taste of India Jones, Mumbai, back to the kitchens of Baan Thai at The Oberoi Grand, Kolkata, for an even more innovative dining experience.”
