Two Indian chefs have taken Indian fine dining into extreme sports with pop-up restaurants on Mount Everest’s 17,600 ft high base camp
Let’s face it: When it comes to Indian fine dining, our definition has been limited. Barring a few exceptionally good restaurants, there has been little to write home about. But, the status quo changed this month. Two different groups of chefs trekked to the base camp of Mount Everest and served a sumptuous meal at 17,600 ft.
