No Knives. No Apron. Let’s Cook.

Got sucked downtown with no knives, no apron and apparently no ability to make the first one correctly.

Just another completely normal day in a restaurant kitchen.

So many incredible dishes to discover at @kama.westloop. Modern Indian fusion done right. The shank vindaloo is an absolute show-stopper, and @nunez.chef takes every dish to the next level. His pastas are wild in the best way!The cashew korma e pepe is a must, and the lamb keema ragu with lasagnette and masala peanut crunch is unforgettable.

The butter chicken is pure comfort with its rich flavorful sauce and perfectly tender @joycefarms poulet rouge with fantastic crispy skin.

Don’t miss the shareables: deep fried potato pakora with giardiniera aioli on the Happy Hour menu, and of course, the lamb chops.🥂 by @nunez.chef

Slow-braised, spicy, tangy, bold.
Lamb Shank Vindaloo—prized for its tenderness and clean flavor. Elysian Fields lamb, finished with mint-cilantro rice and a cool raita counterpoint.

Ready for an Indian dining experience like no other? @kama.westloop brings modern Indian fusion with bold flavors & creative cocktails, along with a stunning ambiance. It’s time to take a culinary journey!

The new restaurant is a collaboration between @nunez.chef (formerly of Michelin-starred Alinea) & co-founders Vikram & Agnes Singh. The dishes take on a new level of culinary. This is not your typical Indian restaurant. Be ready to taste unique flavors that will have you excited for your next bite.

The restaurant has a great Happy Hour. I love that the options are original bites not found on the main menu. We tried the deep fried potato pakora with giardiniera aioli. It was a perfect bite. I needed the tikka chicken popcorn. Chef renders down the chicken stock into a powder. I was a big fan of the chicken liver mousse tart with a graham cracker crust.

The dinner menu is broken down into small & large plates that are perfect for sharing. You must order the kulcha which is a seasonal stuffed naan. Currently they have squash but there’s a secret menu one stuffed with flavorful lamb & a consume for dipping. It’s a birra but the Indian version. The goan pei mussels with a tamarind-coconut broth will have you sipping the sauce. The kashmiri naan is the best bread ever. The lamb chops are fun to share.

I love chef’s creativity for pasta. He makes a cashew korma e pepe. It’s a potato ravioli with the most phenomenal sauce. I fell hard for the lamb keema ragu with
lasagnette noodles & masala peanut crunch. This is a must order. It’s non-negotiable!

The butter chicken is next level. From the tasty sauce to the tender @joycefarms poulet rouge with crisp skin. It’s a perfect presentation & bite. The lamb shank vinadaloo is a show stopper along with the short rib nihari with phyllo wrapped biryani. The 24hr slow simmered dal is a must side dish. All of the dishes are works of art!

The cocktail program is fabulous. I highly recommend the pisco inferno along with the smoke show Manhattan.

Kama means Love, Passion & Desire. I think I experienced it all while dining here. This is a must visit! taken in KAMA by @nunez.chef
