Start with one of the dramatic cocktails—the spicy mezcal-based Rang Birange arrives in a wooden box with dry ice and a (fake) snake. The four-course modern Indian menu comes with your choice of elegantly presented and superbly spiced dishes, such as fried shrimp with a spicy-sweet pepper chutney or lamb in a delicate lentil crepe oozing with buttermilk mousse. The meal culminates in heartier dishes—try the hay-smoked pork loin in vindaloo sauce—served with rice, naan, and an irresistible dal makhani.
