The Restaurant

Bibi presents Indian food in a relaxed and playful way; still paying homage to the flavours of the subcontinent, but with a renewed focus on high-quality produce and contemporary technique. We take inspiration from the street carts and roadside shacks from Karachi to Kerela, to best serve the appetite for high-impact, spicy food, with a heavy emphasis around wood and charcoal grilling.

Headed up by Chef-Patron Chet Sharma, with a hope to cherry-pick the unique, interesting flavours and products learned through an upbringing revolving around food from across the subcontinent, paired with techniques honed at some of Europe’s most celebrated contemporary restaurants.
