Indian Accent, The Lodhi, New Delhi

Chef Manish Mehrotra has burnished his reputation by bringing modern Indian cuisine to the world. He picks and chooses from flavours that have been honed over millennia, and here, he reimagines them, presenting them in fresh, interesting ways. Indian Accent, which came in first even at the 2017 Top Restaurant Awards, prides itself on sourcing most of its produce fresh from in and around New Delhi. While Indian Accent is best experienced by indulging in the chef's tasting menu, it now offers entirely plant-based vegan menus, as well, for those conscious about what they eat and how it impacts the world we live in. Delicacies such as the pulled kathal phulka taco or the green jackfruit, sweet potato and Goan mango curry are as satisfying as the Chettinad chicken keema and the Kanyakumari crab. A meal here is one of those rare experiences fit for a milestone celebration.

Himalayan Raw & Fine Element: The restaurant sources its fresh ingredients from in and around the National Capital Region. Whether it is the deliciously crunchy baby cucumbers and the succulent tomatoes that hero many a dish here, the sweet strawberries used in the desserts and drinks, or the edible flowers used as garnish, a lot of it comes from a hydroponic farm in Greater Noida. Whatever ingredients aren't used go right back into the soil, thanks to The Lodhi New Delhi's composting plant.
