At CHASKA, a great meal starts with the best ingredients. The passion put into their recipes starts with a commitment to simple and fresh ingredients. They source all of our ingredients directly through farmers and suppliers who raise and prepare foods with care and responsibility.

Where did the idea come from to launch the restaurant?
Speaking with founder Naveen Seth, he says:
“CHASKA” literally means “Obsession”, and mine is an obsession with Indian street food. Looking back on my childhood in India, some of my favourite memories are those of family road trips to different cities to visit friends and relatives. These trips were a feast for the senses; from the vivid colours and artistry of the trucks we would pass along the way and the distinctive sounds of their horns, to the delicious flavours and aromas of the street food. Each place we would go offered a unique street food experience where I developed my passion for favourites such as chaat, kathi rolls, samosas and tava chicken.
Now, the authentic street food experience that I remember as a young boy is brought to life for you at CHASKA. We offer a different take on Indian food that is both delicious and fresh, prepared daily using savoury spices, with flavourful herbs and marinades in place of rich and heavy sauces.
All of our recipes have been developed with passion, and spiced to perfection. We invite you to be a food explorer at CHASKA, and make Indian street food your obsession.
