Mumbai, June 2025: Across, located in the cultural heart of Kala Ghoda, introduces a thoughtfully curated Monsoon Menu, offering diners a taste of the high-altitude culinary traditions of the Eastern Himalayas. Staying true to its philosophy of blending regional authenticity with modernist techniques, Across continues to explore the rich, lesser-known gastronomic heritage of mountain communities. Led by Chef Viraf Patel and Chef Prakriti, the seasonal menu is designed to evoke warmth, comfort, and a sense of place—perfectly suited for Mumbai’s monsoon.
This limited-time menu brings together a variety of dishes that reflect the complexity and depth of Himalayan cuisine. Guests can begin their journey with small plates like Mutton Thenthuk (hand-torn homemade egg noodles in mutton, potato broth), Buckwheat and Cheese Fritters, Spicy Darjeeling Aloo Dum with Nimki, Churpi Cheese Gnudi inspired by Himachali Madra, Prawns Dumplings in Kalonji Butter Gravy, and Prawn Dumpling. Each dish has been crafted to highlight regional flavours and seasonality, staying rooted in traditional methods while embracing a contemporary presentation.
For those looking for hearty mains and bold flavours, the Monsoon Menu also features Hearty Pork Saag Curry, Chicken Jasha Maroo, Egg Ezay Salad Pocket, and the spicy Crisp and Spicy Dalle Chilly Wings. These dishes are a testament to the chefs’ deep exploration of ingredients native to the Himalayan belt, many of which are sourced directly from the region to preserve authenticity. The menu not only brings attention to underrepresented culinary traditions but also creates a dining experience that feels both immersive and grounded in storytelling.
To conclude, the dessert selection on the Monsoon Menu includes the indulgent Rocky Road Brownie and the refreshing Sucha Panna Cotta—offering the perfect finish to a meal inspired by the mountains. With this seasonal offering, Across reaffirms its commitment to reimagining Himalayan cuisine in a form that resonates with urban diners while honouring its cultural roots. The Monsoon Menu is now available for a limited period and is a must-try for those seeking comfort, craft, and culinary discovery this season.
