Daru is a cozy corner restaurant with excellent food & complex cocktails (original plan was a cocktail bar). A generous HH runs daily at the bar 5-6:30, and occasionally all night, including this Sun-Thur. I love the snacks most - items like dahi puri & momo. Z&Z zaatar naan is🤌

Congrats to everyone who earned stars, bibs, and big mentions at the Michelin ceremony tonight! ⭐️

This Halloween my husband & I are Michelin inspectors.
But you’ll never know when we’re on duty 😂 or if we’re judging you or judging your food…
@MichelinUSA if you see this no you didn’t 😂 cause we’re anonymous inspectors
Signed,
Team Sir Bibendum.
Happy Halloween 😂👻🎃
