Indian Accent is not a newcomer to acclaims and applause. Nestled in the heart of New Delhi, this gem of a restaurant has, for the third time, clinched the top spot at the Condé Nast Traveller Top Restaurant Awards. It's not just a restaurant; it's a celebration of innovative culinary arts where traditional Indian flavors are reimagined, giving birth to a contemporary dining experience that lingers in the memory long after the meal is over.
But this story of culinary artistry doesn't end in the enchanting corridors of Indian Accent. A hop, skip, and jump away in the scenic landscapes of Goa, Bomras carves out its niche, claiming the number two spot on the coveted list. The eatery’s revival in Anjuna has seen it flourish, bringing a seamless blend of Burmese, Vietnamese, and Thai flavors to the table. Each dish is a melodious symphony of tastes that dances gracefully on the palate.
Masque in Mumbai is another name that has etched its signature in the annals of India’s gastronomic scene. Positioned at a proud third in the ranking, Masque is an odyssey of flavors, a journey that takes you through the verdant forests of Kashmir to the golden shores of Goa. Every season sees a new menu, a fresh narrative of India's diverse culinary traditions, morphing homegrown ingredients into exquisite, fine-dining manifestations.
This year marked the grand return of the CNT Top Restaurant Awards after a pause induced by the global lockdowns. It unveiled an eclectic mix of classic and new entrants, each echoing the dynamic shifts and evolution in India’s dining patterns. Mumbai emerged as a star, boasting twelve restaurants that weave a narrative of the city’s diverse and rich culinary offerings. Veronica’s entrance into the top 10 is emblematic of a dining culture that is as rooted in tradition as it is in forward-thinking innovation.
Indian Accent stands as a testament to the inventive spirit of Indian cuisine. Its Chef’s Tasting menu is a handpicked curation of dishes that are iconic, each telling a story of India’s gastronomic heritage interlaced with global influences. Bomras, with its signature dishes like the tea leaf salad and smoked pork fried rice, captures the essence of diverse Asian cuisines, presenting a dining experience that transcends borders. Masque, under the adept hands of Chef Varun Totlani and the visionary entrepreneur Aditi Dugar, transforms hyperlocal ingredients into masterpieces, marrying tradition and innovation.
In these top restaurants, every dish, every flavor, is an ode to India’s vast culinary landscape. They are more than dining spaces; they are experiential journeys that cater to the soul, offering not just food but a holistic experience. From the artful presentation of dishes at Indian Accent to the innovative flavors of Bomras and the seasonal narratives of Masque, each restaurant embodies a unique chapter of India’s rich culinary tale.
As we applaud their achievements, let’s not just celebrate the art of fine dining but also acknowledge the passionate individuals, the chefs, the restaurateurs, and the entire teams who breathe life into these establishments, making them iconic landmarks in India’s culinary journey.

Air India Express flyers can now enjoy a healthier in-flight experience, thanks to a new partnership with Latambarcem Brewers, the Goa-based beverage brand. This collaboration brings Borécha, a functional tea-based beverage, to the skies. The Ginger Ale and Rose Vanilla variants of Borécha are now being served on major Air India Express routes across India, offering travelers a refreshing and health-oriented choice.
Borécha, known for its health benefits such as improved immunity, better digestion, enhanced skin radiance, and stress relief, has already become a favorite among retail, aviation, and hospitality players across the country.
"Borécha is the perfect blend of health, fun, and taste, making it an ideal travel companion," said Aditya Ishan Varshnei, Co-founder and CEO of Latambarcem Brewers. He highlighted that the partnership with Air India Express aligns with their mission to make functional beverages accessible to everyone, whether at work, the gym, or while traveling.
Borécha’s unique appeal lies in its variety of flavors crafted from Assam and Darjeeling teas, coupled with its Room Temperature Stability, making it perfect for in-flight service. From its origins as a Goan household essential during the pandemic, Borécha has grown into a pan-India favorite, catering to prestigious clients such as ITC, Akasa Airlines, and Lulu International.
Latambarcem Brewers, based in the lush Goan hinterlands, is revolutionizing India’s beverage industry with their craft beer range, Maka, and their kombucha line, Borécha. Founded by siblings Aditya Ishan and Anish Varshnei, it combines global expertise with Goan charm, crafting beverages that celebrate individuality and diversity.
The brewers have made a significant impact not only on the beverage market but also on the local community, creating jobs and supporting livelihoods in their home village of Latambarcem. Their vision of catering to diverse palates—embodied in their mantra, “One size doesn’t fit all”—has driven their remarkable journey.
With the airline industry often criticized for a lack of healthy beverage options, this collaboration with Air India Express marks a pivotal step in redefining in-flight hydration. Borécha’s refreshing flavors, combined with their health benefits, promise to transform the travel experience for flyers.
Whether you’re commuting for work or leisure, Borécha is here to make your journey flavorful and functional. This partnership not only underscores Air India Express's commitment to enhancing passenger experience but also solidifies Latambarcem Brewers’ position as a pioneer in the functional beverage space.
So, next time you board an Air India Express flight, take a sip of Goa’s finest and enjoy a healthier way to hydrate at 30,000 feet.
