At London’s Vineet Bhatia, you do not have to conform to the norms of Indian dining. Instead, try food that is rooted in heritage and laced with love. This fine restaurant in Chelsea is, of course, named after the renowned Michelin-starred chef himself, Vineet Bhatia. Born in India, Vineet arrived in London in 1993 and was dismayed by the way Indian food was represented in the city. Over some years, cheffing at a handful of restaurants and partnering with chefs that shared a similar vision, Vineet cooked his way to the very top of the game, guiding the growing popularity of gourmet nouvelle Indian cuisine and establishing himself as one of the best Indian chefs not just in London, but the world. Today, he is recognised as one of the top 1000 most influential people in the capital.

This excellently located restaurant, then – set within the splendour of a Victorian townhouse on Chelsea’s Lincoln Street – is one of a kind. The tasting menu is seemingly simple but, in fact, radiates thoughtfulness by virtue of flavour combinations that surpass any Indian cuisine you are likely to have tried. Five courses offer produce in line with the healthy eating trends of today, fused with the authenticity that’s been carried over the years by Vineet Bhatia himself. Begin with khari biscuit aubergine kut, grilled lobster, and follow through with kapi lamb chops. Then, Coconut Calm and, to finish, sesame crisp with a chilli-chocolate sauce and almond tuille. This is emotional, forward-thinking Indian cooking you will not find anywhere else in London, inspired by a chef who is passionate and original. Reserve your table now.
