I just lately attended the launch of their new ‘After Hours’ idea, and let me say, it was every thing an evening out must be: cosy, flavourful, and buzzing with simply the correct vitality.

Tucked away with its modern Indian appeal, Indy now invitations friends to linger lengthy after dinner. After Hours is their ode to night-time indulgence, with a bar program that stands shoulder to shoulder with its stellar kitchen. Rooted in Indian flavours and celebrating native craft, the drinks menu champions homegrown spirits and types which are placing India on the worldwide beverage map.

The launch night was a vibrant affair. The drinks have been curated in collaboration with Kumaon & I – India’s first provincial dry gin, and Bandarful, a chilly brew espresso liqueur by Himmaleh Spirits. I attempted cocktails that includes each, and so they have been refreshingly artistic, balancing daring flavours with refined depth.
And the meals? That was good too. I’m nonetheless fascinated with the Himachali Siddu-a comfortable, steamed bread that was fantastically plated on a mattress of chutney and filled with flavours. Every dish complemented the drinks completely.

Owner Prateek Arora summed it up nicely when he stated, “After Hours is a natural extension of our philosophy-to create distinctive experiences rooted in Indian craft and cuisine.”

It wasn’t a loud, overwhelming evening. Instead, it was relaxed, elevated, and intimate-everything an excellent post-dinner plan must be. With its considerate curation and easy-going vibe, Indy After Hours has formally earned its spot on my night-out record.
