Rasika
Rasika Review
This trendy Indian restaurant pairs an adventurous wine list with spicy fare in a supersleek setting. The chef, London export Vikram Sunderam (from Bombay Brasserie), comes from a town where curries never get short shrift. He has prepared a menu of traditional delights, like a fiery green masala chicken, alongside newer, more inspired ones, like green chili mussels, black cod with star anise, and fried spinach leaves with sweet yogurt sauce. Libations at the bar are concocted with as much creativity as the food. Muted shades of cream, apple green, and cinnabar and dangling crystals evoke the subcontinent in a stylish, modern way.
