The Timeless Journey of Indian Cuisine: Ananda's Modern Interpretation

Indian cuisine, with its millennia-old history, is a symphony of flavors, techniques, and traditions. At Ananda, we celebrate this rich heritage while infusing it with a modern touch, creating a unique dining experience for our patrons in Dublin.


The Roots of Indian Cuisine:

Indian food is as diverse as its culture. From the spicy curries of the South to the rich gravies of the North, every region has its unique culinary identity. This diversity stems from India's varied climate, topography, and cultural influences from invaders, traders, and settlers.


Ananda's Culinary Canvas:

At Ananda, we respect these traditions but aren't bound by them. Our chefs, with their deep-rooted understanding of Indian flavors, experiment and innovate. The result? Dishes that resonate with nostalgia but surprise with a contemporary twist.


Sourcing the Best:

The essence of any great dish lies in its ingredients. We pride ourselves on sourcing the finest local produce, ensuring that every dish is a harmonious blend of freshness and authenticity. From succulent meats to aromatic spices, our ingredients narrate tales of quality and purity.


The Ananda Experience:

More than just a meal, dining at Ananda is an immersive experience. Our interiors, inspired by Indian aesthetics, set the stage. The dishes, each with its story, play the lead role. And our dedicated team ensures that every act, from the appetizer to the dessert, is flawless.


A Glimpse into the Future:

While we cherish our roots, we're also excited about the future. With evolving palates and emerging culinary techniques, the world of Indian cuisine is on the brink of another revolution. At Ananda, we're at the forefront of this evolution, crafting experiences that will shape the future of Indian dining in Dublin.

I still have vivid childhood memories of the delicious lunch I relished in the restaurant car of the iconic Taj Express via Agra while travelling from Delhi to Gwalior. In those glorious days of yesteryear — most prestigious trains — especially in the central, western, and northern parts of India — had restaurant and dining cars — run with pride and flair — each proudly serving its own distinctive cuisine and signature dishes. There were a variety of items on the menu — Regional Indian and Continental fare. The year was 1979— and may be longest and the most epic journey of our lives from Trivandrum in Kerala to Dharamsala in Himachal— as the train chugged its way from Coimbatore to Chennai and Delhi through to our final rail head Pathankot. 5 days 4 nights traversing the sandy seashores, back waters, river valleys, hills of the Deccan plateau and the Indo Gangetic plains mountains with dense jungles of the Bhil Nagpur & Gondwana forests. We ate roast chicken — my father had Chicken Cutlets and chips — omelettes toast and tea and my mum the Vegetarian Thali Meal. — we ate leisurely — savouring every bite — while enjoying the picturesque verdant scenery through the large open windows of the old-style luxurious restaurant car. unhurriedly in relaxed ambiance. I eagerly looked forward to enjoying inimitable railway food — and for me this was the most exhilarating part of a train journey. This menu reflects my memories made on many a journey across a nation defined by its trains and the people who served and savoured it. Asheesh Dewan
