Review on Cinnamon Bazaar
Vivek Singh opened his fourth restaurant called Cinnamon Bazaar in December 2016, located in the heart of Covent Garden, it joins siblings the Cinnamon Club, Cinnamon Kitchen and Cinnamon Soho. Laid out over two floors it showcases modern Indian dishes, inspired by the marketplaces on trading routes connecting the empires of the Old World.
The décor has been created by DesignLSM, with the main dining room featuring beautiful hand-painted stencilling on the walls and the ceiling swathed in colourful Indian silks with festoon lighting, hanging lanterns and greenery in baskets. London-based artist Diane Hill was commissioned to create the entrancing hand-painted elephant and palm scenes to the bar front in the upstairs private dining room and front door, as well as the distressed tile effect on the surrounding columns.
The kitchen offers an all day approach to food kicking off with breakfast and working its way through lunch and dinner, or you can pop in for one of their savoury snacks called chaats, typically served from food stalls in India. The menu peruses its way through dishes such as double cooked pork belly 'Koorg' style, curried yoghurt and Kolkata spiced cod, mustard and red onion and
caramel puffed rice amongst the small plates. Other promising ideas include vindaloo of ox cheek, masala mash and pickled radish or Bazaar shrimp fried rice and stir-fried bok choy. Ice creams and sorbets are popular finales, otherwise choose the dark chocolate and walnut cake with Malacca coffee ice cream or cardamom kheer crème brûlée.
There's a comprehensive wine list to complement the dishes, as well as creative cocktails from award-winning mixologist Ryan Chetiyawardana, aka Mr Lyan.
