Restaurant India News: Matram Brings Chef-Driven Fine Dining to Dwarka With Heritage-Inspired Menu

Matram, positioned as Dwarka’s first chef-driven fine dining restaurant, has opened its doors, offering a menu that combines India’s culinary heritage with contemporary presentation and techniques. The concept is spearheaded by Shubh Sharma, an entrepreneur known for developing several hospitality ventures in the region, including Mayfair, Cafe Di Milano, Barcode, and Pokerface.

At Matram, the focus is on reviving forgotten recipes and heirloom ingredients from across India, presented with modern techniques. The restaurant’s culinary program draws inspiration from regions as diverse as Kashmir, Kerala, Gujarat, and Assam, with each dish crafted to reflect regional traditions through a refined lens.

Chef Suresh Fartyal, with 24 years of experience, serves as the curator of Matram’s culinary direction. Rooted in the traditions of Uttarakhand, his approach integrates India’s regional flavors with global techniques. Every dish at Matram is designed as an “immersive expression” where taste, texture, and storytelling converge.

The menu features a variety of regional and innovative dishes, including Tender Coconut Chilly Fry, Gunpowder Podi Idli with Coconut Espuma, Kashmiri Nadru Fritters, Kundapur Chicken Ghee Roast, Rum-Spiced Tiger Prawn Tandoori, Kerala Mutton Pepper Fry, Watermelon Panchporan, and Kashmiri Gucchi Morel Pulao.

Set against a design that incorporates elements of India’s cultural heritage, Matram is positioned as a destination for food enthusiasts seeking an elevated dining experience. The restaurant aims to deliver high standards of service, consistent quality, and what it describes as “warm hospitality.”

Speaking about the concept, Shubh Sharma noted that Matram represents a new chapter in his hospitality ventures, blending authenticity, elegance, and cultural depth to create a dining space that honors India’s culinary legacy.

Chef Suresh Fartyal added that the menu at Matram pays homage to India’s kitchens by reviving native flavors and presenting them with a contemporary edge, aiming to create a memorable and meaningful experience for each guest. As it debuts in Dwarka, Matram seeks to establish itself as a benchmark for chef-led, heritage-driven dining in the region.
