Chef Aanal Kotak brings two new menus to her flagship restaurants, ‘ROOTS’ at The Secret Kitchen and ‘NATYAM’ at SouthAK

 

 

Celebrity Chef and restaurateur Aanal Kotak continues to redefine India’s fine dining scene with the launch of two fresh culinary experiences, ROOTS at The Secret Kitchen and NATYAM at SouthAK. Both new menus embody her signature philosophy of blending India’s heritage with modern global expression.

 

At her award-winning vegetarian restaurant The Secret Kitchen, Chef Aanal introduces ROOTS, a celebration of India’s regional cuisines and timeless flavours. Drawing inspiration from age-old recipes and traditional cooking methods, each dish tells a story of nostalgia, comfort, and authenticity presented with a contemporary flair.

 

Meanwhile, at her South Indian fine-dining restaurant SouthAK, the new menu NATYAM captures the spirit of Indian classical dance. Each plate reflects balance, rhythm, and movement transforming coastal delicacies and temple-inspired dishes into refined works of art.

 

“ROOTS and NATYAM are my way of paying tribute to India’s culinary heritage,” shares Chef Aanal Kotak. “One celebrates where we come from, and the other expresses how our culture continues to evolve.”

 

With over 10 global outlets under The Secret Kitchen brand spanning India, the USA, Canada, and Australia, Chef Aanal has become a global ambassador for modern vegetarian dining. Beyond her restaurants, her ventures like Sandoitchi, TSK Organics, and her FMCG line continue to bring her culinary philosophy into everyday life.

 

Through ROOTS and NATYAM, Chef Aanal Kotak invites diners to experience India’s past and future beautifully plated and thoughtfully reimagined.
