Postcards from the pass
2. The way pomelo (jambura), shrimp & black watermelon compliment each other was a surprise. It takes inspiration from evenings spent mixing pomelo & guava with chilies as a kid. But the dressing is what blew me away.
4. My favorite kind of dal is cooked with either jolpai or green mango. Something beautiful happens when the sour fruit(s) is stewed together with spices. Jolpai is slow-cooked with coriander and garlic in stock. A classic beurre blanc is then mounted with in-house green mango kashund.
7. I was never a steak person until this dish was developed in R&D. It’s an homage to a classic Bangla-Chinese restaurant in Chittagong called “Tai Wah” and takes the idea of Cantonese Lo Mai Fan but using Binni rice.
10. Paneer gelato made from true Dhakai Austogram Paneer, is unmatched. New favorite on the menu.

A week of gelato & cake
1. Paneer Gelato with Charred Plum Compote & Honey Ghee Toast. A fun South Asian take on a cheese-board inspired gelato. Hints of pink lemon swirled through.

3-4. The Roshmalai: Sourdough Fior Di Latte, Gur-Canele & Olive Oil with . I wanted to know what a gelato from the malty, molasses-dairy notes of the cold milk from a traditional Roshmalai would taste like. Always a crowd pleaser.

6. Black Rice Gelato, with black rice from Bangladesh. Toasted and steep in a custard base, it pairs so beautifully with a medium roast hilltracts espresso from
7-12. Tasting the full extent of the SW burrata & strawberry combo w different strawberries & always our 5-year aged Java plum (jaam) balsamic vinegar & olive oil
13. Cha Biscuit: Malai Gelato with Ghee Financier & Masala Tea Caviar. Apparently it’s never coming off the menu 🙂‍↕️

Progress isn’t just about moving forward — it’s about rethinking what’s possible.

Join us as we step into the world of Sameera Wadood—a former cybersecurity engineer who traded algorithms for aromas, finding her true purpose in the culinary arts.

In this exclusive feature, Sameera shares how her shift from tech to food blends research, story-telling, and crafting dishes rooted in tradition yet boldly reimagined for today.

Using simple, locally sourced ingredients, she redefines flavors—highlighting their hidden potential through technique and creativity. This is cooking goes beyond the plate; it’s a reflection of memory and culture.

Passion, precision, and progress — principles that drive every dish and every journey. Just as Audi pushes the boundaries of design and technology, for Sameera, it’s about reimagining possibilities and shaping the future of food through innovation.

It’s a celebration of what was, what is, and what could be.

We’re beyond excited to bring our annual winter pop-up back to Dhaka! .wadood and are collaborating on a one-of-a-kind, 9-course dining experience that celebrates the magic of the new season—its abundance, its stories, and its traditions.

Drawing from the familiar and the festive, we’ve reimagined seasonal ingredients and nostalgic dishes, weaving memories, personal narratives, and the spirit of the New Year into a contemporary Bangladeshi dining journey. This is more than a meal; it’s an invitation to rediscover our roots, our culture, and the flavors that define us in ways that feel fresh, joyful, and modern.

Pleased to partner with as the venue for this special event. We can’t wait to share this table with you.
