Chefs Sujan and Pujan Sarkar Bring Modern Indian Comfort Food to San Ramon with KHAKI Bar & Canteen - Food & Beverage Magazine
Briefly

KHAKI, a modern Indian bar and canteen, opened on August 1, 2025, in San Ramon. Chefs Sujan and Pujan Sarkar have created a menu that blends traditional Indian flavors with California's seasonal produce, offering a unique dining experience. Their approach integrates nostalgia with culinary innovation, showcasing regional dishes that evoke their heritage. With over 22 years of combined experience, the brothers aim to elevate Indian cuisine, emphasizing deeply spiced, balanced meals that are both comforting and surprising. Each dish reflects specific regions of India, creating a culinary journey for diners.
"At KHAKI, you can expect food that is both surprising and comforting, deeply spiced, vegetable-forward and thoughtfully balanced. From the fiery punch of Andhra-style chili chicken to the coastal depth of Mangalorean beef sukka, each dish speaks to a specific region in India."
"This isn't just a menu, it's a lived experience. We move east with the Shyambazar mutton cutlet from Kolkata, slow down in Bihar with our rustic, garlic-forward champaran mutton inspired by Akash's childhood, and then head north for the iconic butter chicken."
