“The Art of Lunch” – A Japanese Midday Ritual
Otoki introduces an elegant lunch menu in the heart of Colaba, reimagining the midday meal as a serene Japanese ritual. “The Art of Lunch” is a sensorial pause, rooted in the philosophy of washoku—the harmony of food.
Curated by Chef Mohit Singh (ex-Kikunoi Honten, Indee Bangkok, Boury Belgium), the menu includes seasonal Wan Mono soups, Kozara small plates like Agedashi Tofu and Katsu Sando, Nigiri, Maki, Ramen, Donburi bowls, and Bento boxes.
Dishes are plated using moritsuke, the Japanese art of food arrangement, enhancing both flavour and aesthetics. Otoki’s interiors—minimalist and tactile—reflect the same thoughtful philosophy, ideal for solo escapes or business lunches.
