Bar believes in putting Indian food on the global palette with a bold twist to challenge your
perception but remain unapologetically authentic and true to our roots.
We invite you to take a bite and allow yourself to be transported into a celebration of Indian
Heritage through the eyes of Barcelona.
Chef Nikhil Mahale
A prodigy in the realm of Indian cuisine and rising star… his pronounced passion for cooking was
kindled at the young age of 9 as he watched his mother host and treat friends and family. In a short
time, Nikhil started his career as a trainee chef at the renaissance Mumbai and moved on to work for
hotels and restaurants including Farzi café in London, Hilton, Marriot and Sheraton.
Unabashedly talented, his abilities lie in being able to powerfully wield locally sourced ingredients in
a creative and bespoke approach with elements of complex spicing and thrilling flavouring. Yet the
Irony is in the fact that Nikhil believes in simplicity as the true essence of perfection bringing soul
and warmth to all his recipes.
