Jumeirah Zabeel Saray unveils Arcadia by Amala, an intimate dining experience where the rich traditions of Indian cuisine are reimagined through sustainable practices.
At its heart is a seasonal 11-course menu, inspired by traditional tandoor cooking and crafted with a deep commitment to eco-conscious dining.
Led by Pravish Shetty, a chef with over 20 years of experience, the menu showcases his ability to preserve authentic flavours while incorporating innovative techniques. Each dish is designed to tell a story, offering a seamless balance between heritage and modern culinary creativity.
Guests are welcomed by the earthy aroma of fresh herbs, handpicked from Arcadia’s on-site hydroponic farm and fragrant spices sourced from across the region. Chef Shetty sets the stage for the evening by sharing the origins of these thoughtfully chosen ingredients and the culinary traditions they honour.
With a seasonal menu that evolves to showcase India’s diverse and time-honoured flavours, sustainability is woven into every aspect of the experience, with key herbs cultivated locally in the resort’s hydroponic farm. This farm-to-table approach enhances the freshness of each dish, while thoughtfully reducing environmental impact through efficient water use and minimal food miles.
