The Festive One
Dhamak Chicken Bhaat
A full-bodied chicken bhaat for diners who want their meal rich, aromatic and satisfying, with tender chicken, fragrant rice and warming spices in every bite.
Dhamak - hearty, festive and full of character.01 / The story
We are reviving Bhaat as a complete culinary memory: meat, rice, spice, fire and patience brought back to the table with the same sense of wonder that first made it worthy of remembrance.
Within great stone forts, royal kitchens and homes that guarded their culinary traditions, a humble yet magnificent preparation survived because one generation refused to let the next forget.
It sits in its own culinary character, defined by fragrant rice, slow-cooked ingredients, carefully measured spices and the personality of the cook.
The vessel, the flame and the judgment of the cook work together so the grains stay proud, the aromas stay trapped, and every ingredient becomes part of a whole.
Spices must awaken, meat must tenderise, rice must remain fragrant and herbs must lend freshness. Modern kitchens may give us convenience, but flavour still demands patience.
