Dolphin Subsidiary The Door's Client NYC's Bungalow Earns Three-Star Review from The New York Times

DLPN

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / August 21, 2024 / Dolphin subsidiary The Door congratulates New York restaurant Bungalow, internationally-renowned Chef Vikas Khanna and restaurateur Jimmy Rizvi (of Bombay House Hospitality, which includes GupShup, Chote Miya and Ammi), who just received a coveted three-star review by The New York Times. Written by Priya Krishna, this marks the first New York Times restaurant review since Pete Wells' departure and the first three-star review of an Indian restaurant in almost 25 years.

In the review, Krishna recognizes Bungalow as a representative of the "seismic shift" in the Indian restaurant landscape nationwide, growing the cuisine's visibility and influence in mainstream culture. Furthermore, she says that "The menu is a lesson in regional Indian food and the creative possibilities contained within it. It defies preconception or oversimplification, neither strictly traditional nor fusion."

"After almost 25 years, an Indian restaurant has received three stars in The New York Times" says Khanna. "Thank you everyone for believing in us and supporting us, waiting in line in the rain and online to book reservations. I owe it to all of you for making Bungalow a sacred space for our culture and cuisine."

Indian cuisine has long been a staple of New York City's food scene, and Khanna and team are working to bring its acclaim to new levels.
