Mumbai: The Taj Mahal Palace and Tower
Hotel has thrown open the doors of its famous Japanese eatery
Wasabi and the Harbour Bar, more than a year after the popular
joints were destroyed in the 26/11 terror strike.
The Ratan Tata-owned hotel had quietly reopened Golden
Dragon, its Sichuan restaurant, on December 1.
Wasabi, which reopened yesterday along with the bar,
will offer its guests the ever popular old menu, which gives a
taste of exquisite and authentic Japanese culinary treasures,
while the Harbour has extended its collection of wines and
malts.
Executive Chef Hemant Oberoi and his team have also
introduced 14 new dishes, including new kinds of sushi,
salads, cold dishes as well as an authentic Japanese curry.
To complete the culinary experience, the restaurant
has introduced 12 new varieties of the famous Japanese rice
wine – Sake and Japanese beers.
"Today, we have come one more step closer to
fulfilling our promise of rebuilding the Taj to its former
glory. Taj has always reinvented itself since it was born
decades ago and this is what makes it the icon that it is,"
Taj Mahal Palace & Tower, General Manager, Karambir Kang said.
"The opening of Wasabi and Harbour Bar is an important
milestone in the resurrection of The Taj Mahal Palace & Tower.
We are delighted to reopen its doors for guests, old and new,"
Kang added.
