Bengaluru Chef Takes Over Worli's Bare Bombay
Paan chicken, pork doughnuts, and an 11-seater chef's table
Bengaluru-based chef Marisha Shukla has launched her experimental residency menu at Bare Bombay, a cocktail bar with an 11-seater chef's table in Worli, this week.
The standout dish is paan chicken, developed through multiple trials and drawn from Shukla's family tradition of rose-flavoured paan powder. The menu also features pork doughnuts and tomato tarte tatin. Bare Bombay operates as a collaborative kitchen, rotating guest chefs into residencies every few months, a format that sits beyond the standard pop-up or one-night takeover.

Shukla's stint puts a Bengaluru sensibility squarely on a Mumbai plate. Watch this table.
