When the North Comes to the South

Up North at Pullman Chennai Anna Salai is a rooftop dining destination that brings the best of North Indian flavours to the city. If you are looking for an elevated North Indian dining experience that comes with breathtaking city views, look no further than Up North, which is making its unique mark on the culinary landscape of Chennai. BINDU GOPAL RAO highlights how the rooftop restaurant blends authentic North Indian flavours with chic ambience and sweeping city views. Chic Look The rooftop restaurant that is open for dinner has a chic, sophisticated ambience. The red brick walls are not just aesthetic but also double up as natural insulation and soundproofing. The best part is the glass canopy, which means you can dine under the open sky, perfect for a romantic meal for couples or even fun rooftop gatherings. The warm lighting and progressive music create an eclectic ambience, too. Food Philosophy Designed for those who appreciate fine dining with a contemporary twist, Up North offers a meticulously curated menu that pays homage to the rich culinary heritage of North India. All the dishes here use premium ingredients and bold spices and are made using modern techniques. The menu is light, refined, and a departure from the usual heavy and rich North Indian fare. The meal is best accompanied with a selection of curated India-inspired cocktails (think ingredients like raw mango, saffron, and rose) and premium spirits. If you don’t drink, fret not, as the collection of mocktails is interesting too. The Kokum Cooler with kokum, lime, and soda; the Kala Khatta Banta with Kala Khatta, lime, and aerated beverage; and the Paloma Kumari with pineapple, passion fruit, lime, and coconut are good choices. North Side with watermelon chunks, cilantro, agave, and fennel seeds is another must-try on the menu. And
