Forever leading the way for their unforgettable menu and dining experience, De Baga ensures they end the year the same way they started it, by launching another devine exclusive menu to their stylish restaurants.
Embracing the vibrant tapestry of Indian flavours and culture, De Baga invites customers on an indulgent journey through innovative dishes that celebrate tradition with a contemporary twist.
With two locations, one in Chapel Allerton and the other in the heart of Headingley, De Baga’s restaurants promise an immersive dining experience that harmonises the essence of Indian cuisine with a modern twist. Under the guidance of the esteemed Chef Clive Silveira the menu at De Baga features an array of dishes crafted with precision and creativity, showcasing the diverse flavours and regional specialities of India.
Founder Mandeep Singh said: “In 2019 I wanted to be more creative with Indian food and craft a Michelin standard onto the plate, one that would be fuelled by heritage and taste. It’s also around the same time I decided to collaborate with a very good friend and talented Chef, Clive Silveira, and as the saying goes, the rest is history.”
“We launched our first Modern Indian Dining & Cocktail Bar in the heart of Headingley, Leeds soon after and we’ve had our customers taste buds at the heart of our decisions ever since.”
Mandeep continued: “Gastronomical innovation & excellent customer service is at the very heart of De Baga Restaurants, and a unique contemporary menu created by chef Clive reflects this. Giving a modern interpretation to Goan staples & other regional Indian specialties, De Baga brands itself to be a casual fine dine restaurant & cocktail bar – and I’m proud to be delivering just that.”
At De Baga, guests can anticipate a wide range of flavours composed from locally sourced produce, spices, and seasonal ingredients. From delicious appetisers to signature mains and decadent desserts, each dish on the menu embodies the restaurant’s commitment to freshness and quality.
De Baga is poised to become a culinary destination, offering a refined setting for intimate gatherings as well as celebratory occasions such as weddings and birthdays. The restaurant’s dedication to providing exceptional service, coupled with its commitment to delivering a memorable dining experience, sets it apart in Leeds’s vibrant dining scene.
Mandeep looked back on the journey so far: “It was a successful collaboration that led us to be finalist in the Oliver’s Awards in 2020, and winner of The Taste of The Year Award (North England) 2022 at the Asian Food & Restaurant Awards in London.
With such roaring success achieved in 3 short years, we expanded with a new secondary branch in Chapel Allerton, North Leeds in 2022 and now rank amongst the best Indian Restaurants in Leeds. Something we are collectively proud of.”
“We have always strived for excellence in the culinary world and continue to do so even during the current rising cost of living & inflation. De Baga stands strong in each challenge it faces and works relentlessly towards our ultimate goal to be recognized by the Michelin.”
This year, De Baga is thrilled to unveil its exclusive Festive Menu, available from November 21st to December 24th. Priced at £27.95 per person, the set menu begins with a delectable house mix starter followed by a diverse selection of mains, carefully curated to include vegetarian options and complemented by an assortment of sides. Guests will also be welcomed with a complimentary glass of wine, beer, or a refreshing soft drink upon arrival, accompanied by poppadoms to share. This festive offering not only promises exceptional flavours but also a warm and welcoming experience for all guests.
Chef Clive Silveira said about the menu; “My ethos is entirely produce-led; using the best quality, natural and sustainable ingredients in dishes, that whilst grounded in tradition, create excitement on the plates.”
