Raise your glass to the reopening of the Capital’s cult fave Japanese fine dining Kampai, which is all geared up to welcome guests in safer and more hygienic environment. This award-winning restaurant (whose name literally means ‘cheers’ in Japanese), stands in perfect spot in Worldmark 1, Aerocity, with its brass and steel façade that resembles a bamboo trellis. Once inside its minimalistic interiors, with ‘private’ booths with pink seating, you’re presented with a contemporary twist on traditional Japanese cuisine, with new additions to indulge in.

Lifestyle Insider The Private Dining Room at Kampai

The way the restaurant has been divvied up reflects a different season in Japan with outdoor, indoor and private dining spaces. From traditional Japanese-style private dining rooms to the private booths around which you can draw curtains for privacy, a live sushi bar and a well sanitized outdoor seating area, Kampai says it’s ready and safer than ever to welcome it's guests once again. (The seating arrangements are spaced out, strict hygiene and sanitation checks are in place, and the Dining in Slots method has been introduced to ensure a safe dining experience. From contactless dining to QR code menus, availability of disposable cutlery, crockery, napkins, and menu, digital payment options and sanitization booths at entry points, all the guidelines are being followed at Kampai.)

Explore the menu with Japanese specialties such as Sushi, Sashimi, Ramen, Tempura, Yakitori, Udon, Katsu, Tepenyaki, with some new beverages. Signature dishes include delicacies like Aburi Salmon Sushi Roll, Pork Gyoza, Horenso Goma-ae Salad, Tantanmen Ramen, Donburis and Bento boxes, Kampai has something for everyone. With its fresh seafood and use of high-quality ingredients, there’s never been any question of compromising authenticity as far as Kampai’s Founder and Managing Director Avantika Sinha Bahl is concerned. Who can forget the restaurant’s fun-filled one-year anniversary bash last November, packed with patrons, and diplomats from the Japanese Embassy? Cocktails flowed as seamlessly as the plates of tempura and sashimi from the open kitchen.

Kampai started out as a restaurant and evolved into a much larger space. Under its umbrella, Kampai also has a luxury catering vertical which curates unique dining experiences for private and corporate events. (EBK - Experiences by Kampai is a luxury catering vertical by Kampai.)

Lifestyle Insider is a kind of junction point, connecting people with diverse interests that touch on the more luxurious aspects of lifestyle – fashion, design, travel, food and spirits, art, watches and jewellery, cars, yachts, and aviation, and technology. People today don’t fit into boxes and categories. In our individual ways, we are interested in diverse themes, products, and the challenges that face our world today. You will judge how well this effort of mine caters to your passions and proclivities.

Lifestyle Insider is a showcase of all that is beautiful and luxe. Behind every creation, is a designer, chef, entrepreneur, or a design maison. I have delved into my own appreciation for objetsde luxe that I have admired over the years – be it a love of fashion from the world’s top Parisian and Italian fashion maisons and their ’90s muses, or the care that goes into sari and Indian textile collections in my own family. Growing up on four continents, as the daughter of a former Indian Ambassador, I’ve seen a remarkable array of historic places and met a myriad people. My aim is to bring my world view into this website, a curation of what I find particularly stunning, unique, and newsworthy.

It’s an exciting time for brands all over the world. With change comes opportunity. With the global ‘reset’ and uncertainty on many fronts, there is a chance to write a new script. Let’s be those pioneers.

A bit about me:
A luxury and fashion journalist with 25 years of experience in publishing and magazine journalism, I have edited some of India’s top fashion and luxury magazines. I got my BA in Comparative Literature from UC Berkeley, and went on to receive my Master’s in English and French from the University of Strasbourg, France. I have also studied German and Film. I live in Gurugram, India, and look forward to once again exploring our world with a new-found freedom.
