DOSA
6-Course South Indian Inspired Dinner Event
It's been over a YEAR since our last collaboration with TC favorite DOSA, and Exec Chef Arun Gupta is positively itching to test out a brand-new set of recipes for his loyal guinea pigs. For those of you who missed our first collaboration: NYC native Arun Gupta grew up with an Indian father and a Polish-American mother and honed his early kitchen skills frying pooris and shaping pierogis. After graduating from Tufts University, he landed a job cooking at the legendary Gramercy Tavern, where he harnessed his culinary passion and honed his craft for the better part of five years (see his full bio below). He then caught the eye of DOSA'S owner, Anjan Mitra, who convinced Chef Gupta to tap into his roots and oversee this budding South Indian culinary empire. Now in charge of DOSA'S culinary direction, Chef Gupta relishes the opportunity to use the bounty of California's incredible produce and create food that feels authentically Indian. Since taking over, Chef Gupta's innovative take on Indian cuisine has garnered nothing but glowing praise from the food press, including a Michelin Bib Gourmand selection in both 2018 and 2019. We'll be taking over the restaurant for this event and Chef Gupta will, as usual, be coming out of the kitchen throughout the evening to discuss his food philosophy and participate in a Q&A with attendees.
