~From Mumbai to Bengaluru: Cult Favorite Izumi Takes Over ParTTwo Kitchen in Exclusive 3-Day Takeover~
Known for pushing boundaries with food, drinks, and collaborations, ParTTwo is about to serve Bangalore something it’s never experienced before. From June 27 to 29, ParTTwo will transform into a whole new restaurant for three days only — as it hosts Izumi, Mumbai’s iconic Japanese kitchen, for an exclusive, full scale culinary takeover.
Izumi is bringing an extensive menu to Bangalore for the first time — featuring new dishes like the sashimi tasting platter, served exclusively at ParTTwo.
For the team behind ParTTwo, the collaboration is part of a larger mission: to keep shaking things up. “We’ve always wanted to break away from the conventional restaurant format, to have the space change with its collaborators. Izumi, with its cult following and fearless flavours, was exactly the kind of partner we were looking for,” the ParTTwo team shares.
What’s on the menu?
Expect flavours that reflect Izumi’s signature style of Japanese cooking, elevated for India. Every dish carries the restaurant’s now-famous balance of Go-Mi—the five Japanese tastes of sweet, sour, salty, bitter and umami. Signature cooking techniques like robata grilling over charcoal, delicate tempura, handmade ramen, and traditional tsukemono pickling make their way to Bangalore, crafted with a mix of locally sourced and imported ingredients.
Some of Izumi’s most-loved dishes will be served, including the Sashimi Tasting Platter — a standout for seafood lovers, with premium cuts of tuna, hamachi, freshwater eel, Alaskan king crab, and more, each plated with care.
To elevate the flavours further, The Izumi menu can be complemented by ParTTwo’s signature cocktails and carefully chosen wines.
“This is the first time we’re presenting a full Izumi experience in Bangalore,” says Chef Nooresha Kably. “It’s been on our radar for a while, and to finally do it with a space like ParTTwo feels like the perfect fit. We’re excited to introduce not just familiar favourites but new dishes we know Bangalore’s going to love.”
