Recently, I went to the re-launch of Kinbuck 2, a classy casual dining restaurant cum bar in Connaught Place, which happened on 10th May of this year. I was fortunate to have the nationally renowned car rally driver Bani Yadav accompanying me, who kindly accepted my invitation, to my pleasant surprise.
She happens to be the only women driver to win all major rally titles held in India. In a few of these races she defeated her male counterparts, thereby tearing to shred the popular and erroneous notion of car racing as a male sport. Her endeavours also indicate that whatever a man can do, a woman can do better.
Coming back to Kinbuck 2, the multi-cuisine outlet was launched on 17th January 2015, but was closed down for a few days for renovation purposes. According to Anshul Garg, the young enterprising entrepreneur behind Kinbuck2, the revamp of the restaurant has been done for the purpose of a more elaborate menu, and also in terms of its interiors.
Revamping Menu and Interiors
“We decided to bring forth something new for our diners and therefore we decided to redo the menu. The menu has now been made more diverse and elaborate with focus to include the scrumptious street food in a big way,” informed Anshul.
The terrace, which was part of the restro-bar’s infrastructure in the first innings of Kinbuck 2, is now no longer a part of the outlet in its re-launched version. However, Anshul informed that he was hopeful of having the terrace for guests by June of this year.
Anshul said that Kinbuck2 attracted a footfall of 50-60 people on an average during an average weekday and 100-150 people on an average during an average weekend day. It is expected that the re-launched version of Kinbuck 2 would garner even more impressive numbers of crowd.
Inviting Décor
“The footfall will increase with the new renovated setup, as this has made the place more spacious than before. With the change in the bar setting, we have an increment of 25 seats in the restaurant setup,” the entrepreneur observed. Presently, the total cover of Kinbuck2 is 100 persons.

Healthy Food - An Attempt to Meet Diners' Desire
Sustainable Development Goal 3 (SDG 3), one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals established by the United Nations in 2015, was about "Good Health and Well-being". This could be said to be an eye-opener and the source of making people aware of maintaining their health, which became more pronounced due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Consuming healthy food, since then, has become a significant - if not imperative - element in lives of almost everyone. And this healthy and nutritious food is also playing a significant role in the success of restaurants. Diners are now becoming more particular about the food they consume, making the F&B outlets offer a diverse and appealing menu of healthy food options. Ashok Malkani tries to evaluate how the restaurants and chefs are meeting this desire for nutritious food by customers and what are some of the healthy food options.
