In a celebration of culinary excellence, three Indian restaurants have secured coveted positions on the prestigious Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants 2024 list. The annual ranking, renowned for showcasing the finest dining establishments across the continent, has once again recognised the culinary prowess of India.

Leading the Indian contingent is Mumbai’s renowned fine-dining restaurant, Masque, which has secured 23rd spot on the list. Known for its innovative approach to Indian cuisine, Masque continues to captivate diners with its exquisite offerings.

Masque, led by restaurateur Aditi Dugar, stands out as one of India’s most innovative dining destinations, housed in a stylish former Mumbai textile mill.

"Since its inception in 2016, Masque has garnered numerous accolades, from the One To Watch Award to being named The Best Restaurant in India in 2023 and now 2024," according to a post on the World's 50 Best Restaurants' Instagram page.

"Offering both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, Masque’s ten-course tasting menu showcases India’s rich produce, featuring dishes such as Kashmiri morels with patra or the sea buckthorn pani puri, reimagining traditional Indian flavours with inventive twists," it said.

Following closely behind is New Delhi’s culinary gem, Indian Accent, claiming the 26th position. With its distinctive blend of traditional flavours and contemporary flair, Indian Accent has consistently impressed both critics and patrons alike, maintaining its presence on the list for nearly a decade.

Not to be outdone, Chennai’s Avartana, nestled within the luxurious ITC Grand Chola, has secured the 44th spot. Building upon its success from the previous year, Avartana’s inclusion reaffirms its status as a culinary destination worth experiencing.
