ADRIFT Kaya’s New Menu Is Michelin Chef Myers’ Fusion Food Tribute With Seasonal Ingredients

ADRIFT Kaya. For Delhiites, it’s a place that we wouldn’t think twice about before heading to for our favourite meal – It’s a buzzing spot at JW Marriott Aerocity New Delhi. The kitchen of ADRIFT Kaya has kept up with the hype, earning a reputation for delivering Japanese cuisine in the most authentic way imaginable. Under the direction of the highly regarded, Michelin-starred Chef David Myers, the restaurant has unveiled a new menu with some ingredient changes that give Japanese cuisine a Californian flair.

What’s ADRIFT Kaya’s New Menu About?


Over the past year, ADRIFT Kaya’s adventure in New Delhi has been amazing. The capital has been gifted with a distinctive Japanese dining experience, emphasising contemporary takes on traditional Japanese flavours, a lively ambience, and outstanding cocktails influenced by Tokyo’s best bars.

Drawing from his personal travels and cultural immersion, the Gypsy Chef’s love for Japan is well-documented in his meticulous craftsmanship of culinary traditions and locally sourced ingredients. The new menu embodies both innovation and tradition; there’s California’s rich culinary diversity along with the enduring appeal of Japanese cuisine. 

Just like the old menu, the new one has a wide array of dishes for every palate. From traditional favourites like sushi and tempura to innovative creations such as Sake Lees Duck Breast, and Oscietra Caviar, there is something to delight even the most discerning of diners. Moreover, the food delves into a symphony of flavours with a sprinkle of umami.

But it’s not just the food that sets ADRIFT Kaya apart — It’s the entire dining experience. From zesty citrus notes to savoury miso-infused food, you’re treated to the finest culinary treats from both countries with dishes like sushi rolls with avocado.
