A new restaurant culture is spicing up dining scene in Indian metros
restaurant. «And even that could be avoided by showing up early in the morning.»
But those days are a distant memory. Across major metros like Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Delhi, a new wave of experiential dining has emerged, creating a storm of exclusivity and FOMO or the fear of missing out.
With limited seating, these restaurants have naturally cultivated a «book early or miss out» culture that appeals to diners craving unique culinary escapades. For many, the challenge of securing a reservation only heightens the allure.
Take Naru Noodle Bar in Bengaluru, where chef Kavan Kuttappa reveals that on reservation days, about 5,000 people vie for just 600 spots. «Trying to make a reservation for Naru Noodles has been my personal Everest,» reads one frustrated post on X. The competition is just as fierce at Papa's, a 12-seater chef's counter in Mumbai run by Hunger Inc. Hospitality. The restaurant opens reservations on the first of each month for the following month, with only about 180 spots available. Diners often compare the experience to scoring tickets for a Coldplay concert and say the reservation for the entire month gets sold out in mere seconds.
Raaj Sanghvi, CEO of Culinary Culture, sees this frenzy as a reflection of India's evolving dining culture. «At the higher end of the market, demand far exceeds supply,» he says.
