We sat at the Chef’s table, so basically you get a seat at the kitchen’s island, very near the stove, so you can look at every detail, the chef and the staff walk you through every detail of the dish they are preparing like the story behind, the inspiration and the meaning for them, it was an amazing experience, everything was delicious, and taste even better when you understand the work behind it.

A perfect night with my family. The experience started at the vinyl shop, then with the amazing food at the restaurant. We went to the Piano Bar for a night cap and ended up singing with the entertainers… final hours were spent at the music hall with an awesome tribute rock band. So in summary our quiet dinner transformed into a memorable family event singing , Finding vinyl treasures and enjoying the ambiance. It may be due to Easter vacation but it was not as busy as we hope it gets because it’s a great please to go and have a good time.

About the restaurant

Maza मज़ा [mazā] n. hindi
Joy, Pleasure “Something that makes you happy »
Inspired by a Franco-Indian love story, two cultures come together in gastronomy to awaken the
senses.
Maza Bistrot is joy on a plate; the culmination of a passion for cooking and hosting shared by Rohan
Chanana, from Rajasthan, India and Caroline Astier Chanana from Drôme, France.
Sharing is at the heart of Maza Bistrot - its leitmotif in the form of little steel thalis carefully designed for
friends, family and a community to enjoy. With freshly sourced local and seasonal produce, Maza’s cuisine departs from convention, emphasizing playfulness using spices and textures.
Marrying ancestral cooking techniques and modern inspiration, Maza endeavours to represent the
symbiosis of East meeting West.
The team at Maza warmly invites you to drop by to enjoy a cup of cardamom-laced chaï, or perhaps a
glass of wine at the bar with your favorite dishes.
