This year, the NYC-based restaurant opened its doors in March. In a city thriving with the most iconic names and outlets, Bungalow has emerged as the ultimate place to indulge in a gastronomic feast of heavenly Indian cuisine. One of the biggest highlights of Bungalow is its menu of innovative Indian delicacies prepared with a twist without losing its authenticity.
It has been only nine months since this culinary treasure opened its doors and already won the Michelin 2024 Bib Gourmand Award. Chef Vikas Khanna announced the spectacular news by sharing, “This is just the beginning.”
The chef is the proud owner of multiple restaurants in Dubai and the USA. As of now, he has not announced his restaurant in India yet. In a conversation with ANI, he clarified his plans if he wanted to run his culinary establishment in his country. Sadly, he denied any such wishes to open a restaurant here.
With Bungalow, Chef Vikas has taken Indian flavours and cuisine to the brightest heights. Along with his team, he continues to work hard immensely to offer visitors the most wonderful gastronomic experience. Calling Bungalow his last tribute, he revealed working about 16-18 hours every day. Opening a restaurant was not his dream but his sister’s wish.
About His Future Plans
Since the beginning, he has been consistent in showcasing Indian cuisine on a global stage and he continues to put efforts to move closer to his goal every day. While discussing his plans, he shared how he will turn 50 years old by the time he completes his present project. During that time, he wishes to use his energy and efforts to work on something different. One of his life’s objectives has been holding the Indian tricolour in the international market. And we can proudly say, he conquered everything and achieved what he dreamt of gracefully.
