Gaggan

Drumming up experience: Kolkata-born Gaggan Anand pursued music professionally before starting his culinary career. From a trainee position at the luxury hotel chain Taj Group, he progressed to work at El Bulli in Spain alongside Ferran Adrià, an experience that instilled in him a love for molecular gastronomy. He founded his first restaurant in Bangkok, Gaggan, in 2010, which has been named The Best Restaurant in Asia for the fifth time.

And then? Gaggan closed in August 2019 and a few months later, the former drummer opened its new incarnation: Gaggan Anand. The chef is on a mission to push boundaries, seeking to create “a culinary adventure of the senses and a roller coaster ride of emotions”. The same irreverent philosophy shines through the restaurant’s digital channels, the chef’s hilarious sense of humour and the out-of-the-box presentation of the dishes. In 2024, the restaurant reverted to its previous name, Gaggan.
