Kimchi with Kapoors, in Japan. A three-part bonus series. Part one, Osaka.
The source teaches what no recipe can.
Osaka was not a trip. It was an education. We ate takoyaki from a stall the Michelin guide quietly lists, run by hands that have made nothing else for decades, then sat at the counters where a city keeps its most serious cooking. We drank matcha and understood, at last, how far an imitation can drift from the thing itself.
What we were after was never a dish. It was the standard behind it, the memory of how the real thing tastes, so the food we serve has something honest to measure against.
The first chapter. Two more cities still to come.
NAO, a premium-casual Pan-Asian bistro in Noida, Delhi and Lajpat Nagar.
With founder @amulkapoor14 and marketing guy @theraconteurwolf.
Kimchi with Kapoors is NAO’s original founder-led series, produced in-house.
