Review:
Legendary chef Viksa Khanna presents an unrivaled, high-end Indian experience in the heart of Chelsea. The soul of this luxe eatery is its glassed-in spice room, where the culinary team hand-grinds and mixes house blends each morning in preparation to add to the five elements of Indian cuisine presented on the menu, namely handi, sigri, pathar, tawa, and tandoor.
Highlights of the region-hopping menu at Junoon include a pungent, seven-spice coated slow-braised lamb shank, tandoori octopus with goda masala and aloo bonda, and nadru matar makhana served with English peas, crispy lotus root, puffed lotus seed, and roasted tomato sauce. The cuisine is organized around traditional methods of Indian cooking, including tawa (cast-iron), tandoor and handi (pot cooking), sigri (fire pit), and pathar (stone), and is accompanied by an award-winning wine list.
