Tucked inside Brahmapur’s restless lanes, Vayu by Shankar Bhavan re-imagines India’s dining map, fusing coastal Odia fire with pan-Indian flair in a soaring, lantern-lit space. From lotus-steamers of Ganjam crab to clay-oven jackfruit biryani, every plate rides the monsoon aromas of black cardamom, curry leaf and temple-ghee, plated on hand-loomed palm-leaf thalis. Chefs forage dawn markets for sea-spray prawns and forest turmeric, while mixologists stir turmeric-gin tonics beneath murals of mythic wind-god Vayu.
