A young chef from a small town in India once used cooking as a way to build a new beginning for himself in Thailand. There, he managed to create a green oasis in the middle of the chaos: Haōma, probably one of the most sustainable restaurants in the world.

Bangkok is as stimulating as it gets. A city famous for never sleeping, for its nocturnal street food markets recommended by , spicy food that makes any foreigner sweat, exuberant palaces, reclining buddhas, Muay Thai fights, and crazy parties. There, in the heart of one of the most polluted cities in the world, Deepanker Khosla created Haōma, a passion project where he gives a modern twist to his Indian origins.

Deepanker Khosla is the chef behind HAŌMA in Bangkok - a Neo-Indian restaurant with a
socially and environmentally responsible heart and explosive flavours and is awarded with theSustainable Restaurant Award 2024 by The World’s 50 Best Restaurants List.

HAŌMA is the result of a deep exploration of Deepanker Khosla’s roots and a journey that takes guests from East to West, from the land to the sea and through every corner of the immense Indian territory, all done with Thai produce, most of which they grow themselves.

HAŌMA serves two tasting menus, a meat and seafood experience and an outstanding vegetarian one.

After guests do a tour through the urban farm in the garden, the fish tanks and learn about some of the sustainable features of Haōma, comes time for Prarambha.

In Hinduism, Prarambha refers to the beginning, and in Haōma it is simply a proof of intentions, a small taste of what’s to come, and it is explosive.
Pani Puri, Vada Pav and Dahi Ke Kebab are the very precise and detailed first three bites.

You can’t miss him. With his full beard, slightly pointed mustache, and signature black glasses Syrian chef Mohamad Orfali is instantly recognizable. And, along with his two brothers Wassim and Omar, he has risen to the top of the regional culinary scene.
Orfali isn’t one of those chefs who stays behind the scenes, rather he roams from table to table, speaking with guests, serving their food, and explaining what they’re about to indulge in.

“I love people and I get energy from them,” he explains.

“My food is different from what’s being offered in the UAE. It has my personality, my memories, and funny stories that come from my mother and grandmother. I’m trying to educate people about our culture. We tell a story.”

The 25-item menu reflects the multicultural diversity of Dubai. “We don’t serve Syrian food - although we’re Syrian boys and proud about that,” says Orfali. “We’re a family of 18 nationalities in the restaurant, and we speak food.”

Amazing things are happening in Antwerp!

Friends! Next weekend we go to Antwerp where Eric will cook with Viki Geunes for two days at his beautiful three Michelin-starred Zilte located on the top floor of the MAS Museum, overlooking the spears and skyline of a city that means a lot to us.

As this was also the city where many of you met us for the first time, when we drove all our porcelain, glassware, ingredients and most of our staff from Copenhagen, to a one night pop up in an otherwise closed boutique hotel during the first moments just after the pandemic lockdown.

It was a different time then and for sure a different time now. No matter, here’s a shout out to all the happy faces and bellies from then, and another to all of those that we will meet soon.

The love story continues❤️


Jordnær meets Zilte, September 14-15, Antwerp.
