Pa Pa Ya, the pan-Asian restaurant under the Massive Restaurants banner, has opened its first establishment in Malad’s suburb. The restaurant features a unique culinary and cocktail menu, catering to diners who enjoy exploring radical gourmet pan-Asian cuisine.
The design ethos of the brand is a fusion of Asian aesthetics and Indian influences, resulting in a vibrant and high-energy dining atmosphere. This concept extends to the newly opened restaurant, with interior design by Sidharth Ninan. The space is sleek and modern, seamlessly blending traditional Asian elements with contemporary design. The clever use of wood lends a creative touch to the decor, and the walls are carefully hand-painted with intricate attention to detail, creating a beautifully sculpted ambiance that enhances the overall dining experience for guests.
The menu is devised by Chef de Cuisine Rajesh Thakur, who has dedicated months of research and development to create distinctive flavor profiles for each dish. Staying true to the restaurant’s vision of presenting a chic, modern, and radical version of Asian cuisine, the menu features a fusion of culinary methods and cultural influences from various parts of the continent.
Speaking about the new outlet, Zorawar Kalra, Founder and Managing Director, Massive Restaurants Pvt Ltd, said, “More than an eatery, Pa Pa Ya is a space that encapsulates all the five senses into the dining experience, making each visit memorable and enthralling. The philosophy behind Pa Pa Ya is simple – offer stellar Asian cuisine paired with Asian-centric spirits. This is done through a mix of cutting-edge cooking techniques for it to be a perfect amalgamation of art and science. Pa Pa Ya redefines and further revitalises Asian cuisine, it is Asian cuisine.”
