Dash & Chutney is set to become the latest stall to open at the Chattahoochee Food Works in the Works development on Atlanta’s Upper Westside.
The new restaurant, which will make its debut on Aug. 22, is run by chef Palak Patel, who has made several appearances on the Food Network, including as a finalist on “Food Network Star.”
Dash & Chutney’s plant-based Indian menu will include dishes such as samosa chaat, sev papdi chaat, vada pav and a Mumbai grilled cheese sandwich with onions, tomatoes and spices. You’ll also find the goddess bowl, a pea falafel and chopped salad, as well as street snacks, including charred corn and handvo, a savory Indian muffin with lentils. The stall also will sell take-home jars of chutneys and spices.
Featuring a mural from visual artist Kavi on its walls, Dash & Chutney will be open daily, joining other food stalls that have opened in the food hall in recent months, including Baked Kitchen, Banh Mi Station, TydeTate Kitchen, Graffiti Breakfast and Pomodoro Bella.
The Works, an 80-acre adaptive mixed-use development, also is home to Dr. Scofflaw’s Brewing and the newly-opened Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q. Look for the Waffle Experience and Brash Kitchen to open in the coming months.
