Dhamaka
Description
Dhamaka is an Unapologetic Foods restaurant celebrating the forgotten side of India. Located at Essex Market on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, Dhamaka dives deep into the bold, provincial cooking rarely seen outside of Indian homes and roadside stalls. The menu pays tribute to regional dishes that are often overlooked—intensely spiced, unfiltered, and rooted in memory.
