A Jashan Residency · October 3–5, 2026
Plano, Texas · Three evenings. Three experiences.
In 2001, Tamarind in London received its first Michelin star.
The chef leading that kitchen was Chef Atul Kochhar.
In the more than two decades since, he has done something quietly extraordinary — helped take Indian food into dining rooms that had never made enough space for it, and done it with enough conviction that those rooms had to pay attention.
But what has always impressed me about Chef Atul is something you can’t put in a press release: the seriousness with which he treats this cuisine.
Not as something to be explained.
Not as something to be made “accessible.”
As something that deserves exactly the same care, precision and reverence as any great cuisine in the world.
His journey inspired me. And I know I’m far from the only one.
There are chefs whose restaurants you admire. And then there are chefs whose work makes people like you dream a little bigger about what might be possible.
October 3–5 · Plano, Texas
And rather than ask him to cook the same dinner three nights in a row, we’re doing this the way I think Jashan should.
Three days. Three completely different experiences.
The Three Experiences
October 3–5, 2026 · Jashan, Plano TX

For one evening, Chef Atul takes over the tasting-menu side of Jashan with a 7-course menu created by him.
This will replace Jashan 101 and Taste of India for the evening.

This one I’m particularly excited about.
Five chefs. Ten hands. One table.
Chef Atul Kochhar · Chef Akshraj Jodha · Chef Ashish Bhasin · Chef Ramesh Thangaraj · Chef Prasanna Singaraju
Different generations. Different journeys through Indian food. One kitchen.
Sixty guests. One Sunday supper. A menu we create together, with food meant to be passed, talked about and remembered rather than simply presented.
60 seats only · $160++ per guest
Reserve your seat →Monday, October 5
This is the one that means something very personal to me.
Twenty seats. One seating.
When I started cooking seriously, there were chefs whose careers made you imagine what Indian food could become on the world stage. Chef Atul was one of those chefs for me.
I don’t think I ever imagined that one day I would have a kitchen of my own, with twenty guests sitting across from me, and that Chef Atul and I would cook a Dil Se together.
But here we are.
For me, this one is as much about gratitude as it is about food.
20 seats only · $225++ per guest
Reserve your seat →I have admired what Chef Atul has done for Indian food for a long time.
And when I look at the kitchen he’ll be walking into — Chef Ramesh. Chef Ashish. Chef Jodha. Chef Atul. — I can’t help but feel grateful.
Different generations. Different journeys. Different relationships with Indian food.
There was a time when cooking alongside a Michelin-starred Indian chef was something I could only imagine.
Now we get three days together, in our kitchen in Plano, celebrating India through the food we all love.
Some dreams take a while.
This one was worth waiting for.
See you at Jashan. ❤️
