Restaurateur Rohit Khattar’s EHV has signed an agreement with Reliance Industries Limited to bring India’s most awarded restaurant, Indian Accent to Mumbai. This comes on the heels of announcing the summer opening of EHV’s forthcoming restaurant in New York, Koloman helmed by Chef Markus Glocker as well as a collaboration with Chef David Thompson for Thai restaurants in India.
Indian Accent, Mumbai is expected to open before the end of the year. It shall be housed in a beautiful space overlooking the fountains at the Dhirubhai Ambani Square at Jio World Centre in Bandra Kurla Complex.
Rohit Khattar, Chairman EHV says, For many years we have explored locations in Mumbai for Indian Accent and our search has ended at the spectacular Jio World Centre, the new epicenter of Mumbai. Indian Accent has a very loyal clientele of discerning guests from Mumbai. So we are particularly thrilled to be able to bring the Indian Accent experience to this vibrant city and look forward to it embracing us as warmly as New Delhi and New York have.
The kitchen at Indian Accent Mumbai will be helmed by Executive Chef Shantanu Mehrotra who has been Executive Chef of Indian Accent, New Delhi since its opening under the guidance of Chef Manish Mehrotra, who created the Indian Accent menu and has been promoted to Culinary Director. Rijul Gulati shall be Head Chef and Varun Sharma, who leads the award winning bar at EHV’s other restaurant, Comorin, shall head the bar programme. The G.M. of Indian Accent is yet to be appointed and shall report to the Operations Director, Nitin Mathur.
The restaurant is designed by the prolific London based, Russell Sage Studio working closely with EHV’s Design Director Rohini Kapur. Architectural Design is by Incubis Consultants under project supervision by EHV’s Director Development Vikas Bhasin.
