In what promises to be a memorable culinary showcase, Four Seasons Hotel Bengaluru’s Asian restaurant Far & East will be hosting the Colombo-based Ministry of Crab, number 35 on Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants. At the two day pop-up, Bengaluru diners will have a taste of a four-course menu curated by Chef Darshan Munidasa, who spearheads Ministry of Crab.
At Far & East, the menu will include recognisable favourites like avocado and crab salad: steamed and chilled crab meat spiked with wasabi mayonnaise, and jumbo garlic chilli prawns served with a traditional Sri Lankan kade bread. In the main course, diners can tuck in to a spiced pepper crab served with Japanese rice.
Zeroing in on these particular dishes was a no-brainer for the team. After all, “people will expect to try out our signature dishes, the ones we are most famous for,” says Munidasa, over a phone call from Colombo. He adds, “We want the diners in Bengaluru to have the same experience that they would normally have at our restaurant in Colombo, or in Mumbai.”
