Swagath’s dishes are created with utmost care and follow a series of unskippable checks before finally reaching your table. The entire journey of how our signature dishes are made and brought to you, is a must-read.
To those interested to get a glimpse of the behind-the-scenes of our kitchen, this blog serves as an overview. Visit us and get the closer look by yourself.
Before the doors open and the dining room fills with conversation, our kitchen starts its day early. The backrooms are filled with sounds of the clatter of knives, the washing of fresh produce, the trained rhythm of steady preparation for the day, etc.
Here is how we start our day, with preps handled by the designated staff of each department:
These simple routines that take place in quiet focused hours, shape the quality of our Indian food and ensure consistency in every meal.
A kitchen is only as strong as its team, and at Swagath, our chefs bring a unique mix of experience and passion. Each member plays a vital role in preparing signature dishes with precision.
This system keeps the kitchen organised and full of life at the same time. Each dish is a result of teamwork, discipline, and years of culinary knowledge.
Each plate is a narrative of method and culture. At Swagath, taste is never hurried. Be it our hot coastal curries or our mild North Indian gravies, every single recipe gets the same amount of attention and care.
Our seafood arrives fresh every morning. The scent emanating from the kitchen is a mixture of ginger, garlic and coastal spices. Seafood is marinated carefully, thus letting the flavours seep in deeply before cooking.
Our chefs specialise in traditional preparations like Mangalorean Tawa Fry, Gassi and Butter Pepper Garlic. Through these ancient techniques, one can enjoy the freshness and the spicy overtones in the seafood dishes.
For those who enjoy bold northern flavours, we prepare dishes that celebrate the richness of Indian cuisine. Dal-e-Swagath is simmered for a long time. Butter Chicken is given the creamy perfection by slow cooking it. Our tandoor is burning hot and steady to impart the smoky charm to kebabs.
These dishes are part of what makes Swagath a loved choice among North Indian restaurants.
Creativity lives in every kitchen. Our chefs often experiment with seasonal ingredients, new spice combinations or updated versions of classics. Sometimes a new chef special is born during a busy night, when inspiration strikes at the perfect moment.
Guests who follow our specials know there is always something new to discover on the restaurant menu.
With the start of service, there is a shift in the energy. The morning’s tranquillity is replaced by a vigorous and focused motion. The kitchen is now a place full of noise.
You can hear the sizzle of pans.
>You can smell roasted spices’ aroma rising from the tandoor.
>You can see chefs moving swiftly from one station to another, tending to every step of the cooking process.
The rhythm is like this:
It is in such moments that the true character of Swagath’s kitchen gets revealed. Every order becomes a promise of quality and flavour.
Behind every flavour is a team that works with dedication. Behind every dish is a process shaped by discipline and love. The essence of Swagath lies not only in what we serve, but how we create it.
