Farzi Café initially opened in Gurgaon near New Delhi in 2014. Since then, the brand has developed nine sites across India and one in Dubai – and now London.
Very impressive looking cocktail menu at https://www.farzilondon.com/pdf/cocktails-menu-upd-09-2019.pdf with frequent references to Veda and Ayurveda!
The signature cocktail menu, named Vedika, translating to ‘the restoring of knowledge’, is playfully inspired by India’s ancient Hindu past.
Created and developed by London’s Dare Hospitality, Vedika playfully explores the interaction between Ayurveda and Vedic Astrology, two closely intertwined ancient Vedic sciences, and takes inspiration from traditional Ayurvedic principles and ingredients to create a selection of tasty drinks made with modern bartending techniques.
Farzi Café’s back of house bar lab enables the creation of cocktails using high tech equipment, including centrifugal machines and a sonic homogenizer, as well as providing space for an in-house fermentation program.
While the cocktails are inspired by the ancient past, the team want to ensure that the drinks help define a new standard for signature cocktail menus in restaurants.
