"On Wednesday, Taj Campton Place hosted an intimate event for dignitaries, city officials, and media to announce Indian Restaurant Week, taking place in six fine San Francisco restaurants from October 5-11. Since it's just before Diwali, which begins on Oct. 20, chefs Ashish Tiwari ( ROOH), Srijith Gopinath ( Copra), Pujan Sarkar ( Tiya), Shibiraj Saha ( Amber India), Ranjan Dey ( New Delhi Restaurant), Thomas George ( Bombay Brasserie) have each created different Diwali-inspired prix fixe menus inspired by their home regions to serve at their respective establishments."
"The launch event wasn't just special because it included a tasting of beautifully composed bites from each, though that was an absolute dream sequence. It was an emotional spotlighting of six immigrant-helmed businesses at the top of their craft, each of whom have contributed positively to the enjoyment of life in the Bay Area. The chefs received certificates of recognition from the mayor, among others."
"As course after course of incredible seafood and meat dishes appeared at the table, Dey happily told me about how this collective effort to create Indian Restaurant Week has resulted in the formation of a new and supportive community of chefs and restaurateurs who are now looking out for each other in ways big and small."
Indian Restaurant Week will take place October 5–11 across six San Francisco fine-dining establishments offering Diwali-inspired prix fixe menus. Participating chefs—Ashish Tiwari (ROOH), Srijith Gopinath (Copra), Pujan Sarkar (Tiya), Shibiraj Saha (Amber India), Ranjan Dey (New Delhi Restaurant), and Thomas George (Bombay Brasserie)—designed menus reflecting their home regions. The launch at Taj Campton Place included tastings and public recognition, with the chefs receiving certificates from the mayor. The initiative has fostered a new, supportive community among immigrant-led restaurants and chefs in the Bay Area. Indian Restaurant Week prix fixe meals are priced at $75 and/or $95 depending on the restaurant.
