In the words of the Chef, “Summer Collection menu has been close to my heart since the time The Spice Route opened doors, and invokes timelessness for me, the moment I started planning it each year. Inspired by fashion fraternity, the menu is whipped up to dish out something unique for the patrons in the landmark kitchen of this world famous restaurant. 

The interesting raw and ripe mango based South-East Asian recipes are refreshing like the advent of summer ought to be and a celebration of the season of course. While mangoes are not integral to Thai cuisine, the fruit is abundant in the season and that’s why the complete menu revolves around it in its own unique way. I have somehow tried to keep the fruit central to the palette layering and balancing it with other flavours.”
