Chef Vineet Bhatia is the world's first Indian celebrity chef and is largely considered to be the father of modern Indian food. 

He has selected Le Royal Meridien Beach Resort & Spa as the home for his latest venture in Dubai. Indya by Vineet takes a contemporary approach to all-time favourite Indian street delicacies in a fun and vibrant, colourful and eclectic backdrop inspired by the culture, spirit and vitality of the motherland.

"Indya is an opportunity to have fun with Indian food, to challenge perceptions and introduce new ingredients to age-old dishes. I guess you could liken it to an expression of my roots and respectfully breathing new life into the food I grew up with" says Chef Vineet.
