Nestled amidst the timeless beauty of the Qutab Minar, where history meets the present, Qla has long been synonymous with refined elegance and exceptional dining. Known for its fusion of European cuisine and modern sensibilities, the restaurant has consistently set itself apart with its creative approach to dining. Now, Qla is taking the next exciting step in its culinary journey, revealing a brand-new menu designed to delight the senses and the imagination.
With a vision to bring the world’s flavours to your plate, Qla’s new menu honours culinary creativity, blending influences from across the globe, Mediterranean herbs, Latin American spices, and more. Each dish is meticulously crafted to compliment its cultural roots while offering a refreshing, modern twist. It’s a gastronomic journey that charms diners with bold flavours, innovative combinations, and artful presentations.
“We’ve reimagined our menu to reminisce the evolving culinary landscape,” says Chef Dipender Kumar Tiwari, the mastermind behind the diverse and dynamic unique offerings at Qla. “Every dish is designed to take our guests on a journey of taste, where tradition meets creativity, and global ingredients come together in surprising and delightful ways.”
The highlights of the new menu are nothing short of extraordinary. Dishes such as Starfruit + Chevre showcase the perfect balance of creaminess and acidity, balanced by the crunch of starfruit. Kimchi with fried tempura broccoli ribs adds an exciting East-West fusion with the addition of parmesan snow, while Chipotle baby zucchini marinated in Mexican chilli and complemented by creamy feta cheese promises a taste adventure like no other. For something truly special, the Indian-Inspired barbeque carrot salad named madras curry comes with seasonal carrots, labneh & carrot juice reduction sauce with the rich spirited flavours of madras curry from southern India.
Expect innovative presentations that are as visually stunning as they are flavorful. Qla’s culinary team uses locally sourced ingredients to enrich each dish while ensuring sustainability and seasonality. Adding Lakhoiri Chilli Prawns, sourced from Qla’s farm, shows the restaurant’s loyalty to quality and freshness.
The new menu is a feast for the palate and invites diners to engage with their food in new ways. From interactive dessert experiences to curated drink pairings, Qla has reimagined what it means to dine out. The Miso Dessert, featuring braised chilli pineapple, miso ice cream, and hazelnut tuile, is a perfect example of how Qla is pushing the boundaries of what dessert can be.
For those seeking comfort, Qla offers a separate menu of kid-friendly dishes, including pasta, sandwiches, and burgers, guaranteeing a memorable experience for the whole family. And while the new menu is full of fresh, bold offerings, loyal patrons will still find a selection of beloved dishes with a modern trace.
In an industry overflowing with options, Qla continues to shine by offering truly original dishes that define flavour and presentation. Whether it’s the Korean-Vietnamese fusion, perfectly smoked robata-grilled duck, or Italian-inspired piccalilli sauces, Qla remains a star of creativity in the culinary cosmos.
