INKA, the latest gem from Shilpa Shetty’s Bastian Hospitality, is the brand’s first-ever Peruvian-Asian restaurant, and it’s an absolute game-changer. Located in the heart of Mumbai at Peninsula Corporate Park, Parel, this 6000-square-foot, 200-seater dining destination is an oasis of culinary creativity and style. Offering an immersive dining experience, INKA merges the flavours of Peru and Asia in a way that’s never been done before in the city.
INKA Brings A Fiery Fusion Of Flavours & Flair
INKA brings together the best of both worlds: Peruvian and Asian cuisines. Under the expert guidance of Chef Kinyo Rodas Tristan, a culinary maestro from Peru, the restaurant delivers a menu that will transport you across continents. Chef Kinyo’s journey has taken him from Peru to Dubai, Qatar, and Kenya before arriving in India. His experience certainly shines through in INKA’s meticulously crafted dishes.
The magic of INKA is in its fusion. The menu is divided into three distinct sections: Mar (Ocean), Montana (Mountains), and Bosque (Forest). Expect tantalising Peruvian-Asian dishes that combine bold flavours, fresh ingredients, and innovative cooking techniques like molecular gastronomy.
Some of the standout dishes you must try are Inti Smoked Tiradito, Tartare de Pulpo Nikkei, Buta Kushi (48-hour pork belly) and Palta Guacamole. The main course offerings at INKA, like Banana Flake Seabass, Arroz del Mar, and Kai Belgian Pork Ribs, are just as exciting, blending the best of both Peru and Asia.
INKA also takes great care of its vegan and carb-loving guests. With dishes like the Amazon Tropical Tofu and the Kinoko Hikari, everyone finds something to savour. The desserts like Choco Udon and Lima Limon Sour are also a delicious mix of Peruvian and Asian influences.
What’s dinner without a perfectly crafted cocktail? The INKA cocktail bar, led by Argentine mixologist Dario Araujo, offers a unique twist on Latin classics with Asian flavours. Ingredients like Szechuan pepper, cardamom, and coconut elevate your cocktail experience. Try the Pisco Sour or the Margarita, reflecting the restaurant’s signature touch.
