Biryani Masala? Cantonese Worcester Sauce? MSG? Charred Corn Husk? These are just some of the unusual ingredients that delightfully come together in The Savory Project’s one-of-a-kind cocktails.
Ajit Gurung and Jay Khan dared to defy norms with The Savory Project, a “never normal” establishment that flips the script on traditional bars by focusing solely on savory flavors.
Its menu caters to the bold and curious, with unexpected creations such as “Thai Beef Salad”, “Biryani”, and “Mala Punch”. In the intriguing Pepper+Corn cocktail, corn husk is meticulously skinned off the corn, cooked on the stove for hours to remove the moisture, and then further reduced sous vide. The dedication to detail is evident in every sip.
In an industry-leading move, The Savory Project presents a thoughtful selection of non-alcoholic cocktails to cater to evolving drinking preferences. “We don’t want people to miss out on the experience of a cocktail bar just because they don’t drink. We put equal thought and craft into our non-alcoholic cocktails, so non-drinkers don’t have to awkwardly settle for a lime soda.”
For Ajit and Jay, it’s not just about drinks; it’s a philosophy of pushing boundaries, challenging the status quo, and standing out in a sea of conformity. The Savory Project embodies their belief being bold and blazing their own trail – ultimately redefining the city’s cocktail scene. 🥃🍹🍸
