Capture the essence of old traditions with a modern touch

Owned by Zorawar Kalra and established in Mumbai in October 2013, Masala Library was conceptualized by Jiggs Kalra using molecular gastronomy techniques to create exquisite cuisine which is exceptionally high-quality, skilfully prepared and artfully presented delighting the senses. It goes beyond just satisfying hunger, aiming to create a memorable and elevated dining experience. Their cuisines involve the use of premium and fresh ingredients, creative flavour combinations, and meticulous attention to detail in cooking and plating.


This exquisite type of cuisine often showcases the expertise of the chef and culinary team, who carefully curate the ingredients, flavours, and presentation to deliver a cohesive and exceptional dining experience. Chefs here specialize in creating delectable cuisine and are known for their culinary expertise, innovation, and passion for food. Their carefully selected and thoughtfully crafted menus or dishes are skilfully created with precision. Utilizing various cooking techniques to extract the best flavors from each ingredient is a hallmark of skilled culinary craftsmanship and the chefs at Masala Library nail it with accuracy. Chefs have evolved from here and made it to a global platform demonstrating the techniques they mastered at Masala Library.


They understand how to balance different flavors, textures, and seasoning to create harmonious and memorable taste profiles that will not only make the food delectable but also will leave an impression on the people that they will not be able to forget the taste of these heartfelt delights.


Such dining experiences can be found only in fine dining restaurants and Masala Library is only one of few such venues where the ambiance, service, and presentation complement the exceptional dishes. The aesthetic and visual appeal in the plating and presentation is an art here too, which is paid great attention to for the visual savourer.


Being a food enthusiast, seeking out restaurants that offer exquisite cuisine is always my mission to seek places that can lead to remarkable culinary adventures and often offer an appreciation for the artistry behind the food creations because the overall culinary experience when pairing foods and beverages when done thoughtfully elevates the taste sensations. Masala Library knows exactly how to do it when the goal is to create a memorable and enjoyable dining experience.


Boasting numerous awards to add to its already outstanding reputation, Masala Library was awarded the World Luxury Restaurant Award in 2017 for best Molecular Cuisine, and the World 50 Best Restaurants Award.


Massive Restaurants has won "THE GLOBAL INDIAN CHAIN OF THE YEAR" at the EazyDiner Foodie Awards, 2019.
