Pink, orange, and amber cocktails named after Bollywood films land on quartzite tables, closely followed by ample servings of chaat, a genre of mouth-puckering, salty, savory, and sweet street food dishes. Empty plates are swept away and replaced by large baskets of naan and heaps of hot rice that accompany platters of whole seabass cooked in banana leaves, tender and creamy butter chicken, and tandoor-cooked butternut squash. At Downtown's new Baar Baar (@baarbaarlosangeles), Angelenos can try out-of-the-box versions of Indian dishes they won’t find anywhere else in the Southland.

Baar Baar's chef Sujan Sarkar (@chefsujans) wants to be the frontrunner in defining new Indian dining. His menu is not so much a love letter to the cuisine and culture as it is a mission statement, an insistence that Indian food can and should go beyond what most folks have had a chance to try. Baar Baar may not be the city’s only option for finer or more creative South Asian dining, but it plays with the cuisine’s past and present in a way that moves the conversation forward.
